Book excerpt: "Tim Ecott's family swapped Northern Ireland for apartheid Johannesburg in the 1970s. But just six months after arriving the family was bankrupt, evicted from their home and most of their possessions had been confiscated by the bailiffs. Whilst friends and relatives imagined they were living enviable lives in the sun, the reality was that the family was cast adrift." "Forced to survive on their wits, they entered a twilight world where their true friends were prostitutes, thieves and renegades." "At the heart of Stealing Water is Tim's mother, who rises magnificently to the occasion keeping the family afloat with her shop, The Whatnot. Situated in an arcade running underneath the streets of Johannesburg, it's the perfect place to keep below the radar of the police."
