At eighteen years old, Dinah gave away her baby son to the rich couple she worked for before they left Jamaica. They never returned. She never forgot him.

Eighteen years later, a young man comes from the US to Kingston. From the moment she sees him, Dinah never doubts - this is her son.

What happens next will make everyone question what they know and where they belong.

A powerful story of belonging, identity and inheritance, What a Mother''s Love Don''t Teach You brings together a blazing chorus of voices to evoke Jamaica''s ghetto, dance halls, criminal underworld and corrupt politics, at the beating heart of which is a mother''s unshakeable love for her son.
