Published in September 2023, 'Nineteen Steps' is set during the second World War and takes inspiration from Brown's grandmother's life. The story follows 18-year-old Nellie Morris, who is living in the east London neighborhood of Bethnal Green and falling for an American airman named Ray. But her world is turned upside down after surviving the Bethnal Green Tube disaster, which killed 173 civilians who were seeking shelter during an air raid.
