Blood Ties: The Life and Loves of Grant Mitchell is the first book released by Kate Lock in her EastEnders book franchise.
Cover blurb[]
What demons drive Grant Mitchell? One minute he's a psychotic wildman, the next, an ardent lover. EastEnders' most provocative, unpredictable, dangerous and sexy character (played by Ross Kemp) takes centre stage in this riveting novel, based on BBC1's multi award-winning drama series.
From his grand passion for Sharon to his marriage to Tiffany and his affair with Lorraine, it is Grant's relationships with women that shape his life. As well as reviving some of the most memorable moments in his turbulent history, the story also delves into Grant's dark past to uncover the source of his aggression - and his vulnerability. Plagued by nightmares about his experiences in the Falklands War and tortured by terrifying childhood memories of his abusive father, Grant finds himself locked into a cycle of violence that seems set to destroy everything - and everyone - he holds dear.
But two other overriding passions dominate Grant's life: his extraordinary bond with his brother, Phil, and his total obsession with having a child of his own even at the cost of sacrificing true love. Can these other 'blood ties' save him from himself?
