Publisher's summary

Glory arrives back in Peckham, from her seemingly glamorous life in LA, to mourn the sudden death of her father and finds her previously close family has fallen apart in her absence. Her brother, Victor, has been jailed, her sister, Faith, appears to have lost her independence and ambition and their mother, Celeste, is headed towards a breakdown. Glory is thrown by their disarray, and rather than returning to America, she decides to stay and try to bring them all together again. However, when she unearths a huge family secret, Glory risks losing everyone she truly cares about in her pursuit of the truth.

Hope and Glory is a rich, heart-warming story of loss, love and family chaos and marks an exciting new voice in fiction.

Critic reviews

"A sweeping, rich tale that explores family, secrets, loss, love and redemption within the context of a tessellation of cultures - written with a beautiful texture, Benson pulls you in to a deftly woven story with tautly written sentences, and before you know it you find yourself in too deep to get out, too deep to want to get out, wanting to know more." (Bolu Babalola, author of Love in Colour)

"Jendella Benson has drawn such a compelling world that Hope and Glory, the book and the characters themselves, stayed with me long after I'd turned the final pages." (Candice Carty-Williams, author of Queenie)

"So deliciously South London." (Yomi Adegoke, author of Slay in Your Lane)
