Is there nothing that Stranger Things star, actress, producer, Human Services student (nope, no idea), make-up and skincare mogul Millie Bobby Brown cannot do? Well, yes, in fact one of the things she cannot do is write a novel, something that she has cheerfully admitted as her debut, Nineteen Steps, was published by HarperCollins last week.
Mills, as her line of all-natural slap bills her, has worked with a ghostwriter, Kathleen McGurl, to tell a story based on the Blitz experience of her own grandmother, Nanny Ruth. Ruth was one of the survivors of the terrible Bethnal Green tube station disaster of 1943, in which 173 men, women and children died descending the steps to what should have been safety.
