Katy Watson (1) (1966–2008)

A young woman in London starts doing heroin with a new boyfriend, becomes hooked and then struggles to come off. I enjoyed Watson's portrait of her work on a feminist woman's magazine (Watson was a member of the collective producing Shocking Pink) and the friend who in the end is there for her when other characters (mostly drug users) aren't.

From Amazon: Young spacegirl is especially lucky to have two mothers and a very curious cat nearby when rocket troubles and nausea begin.
