Angie, 6, and sister Polly, 4, are utterly distraught when they arrive to stay with foster carer Cathy Glass. Their older half-sister Ashleigh has accused their father of something horrible, and the two young sisters have been removed from home to keep them safe.

Cathy tries to comfort the girls, but they are inconsolable. They just want their mummy and daddy, whom they love dearly.

The girls appear to have been well looked after, but as they settle and start to talk of life at home, it becomes clear something is badly wrong. Then a chance remark sets in motion a chain of events that eventually changes everything.

My Thoughts:

I have read all of Cathy’s books and loved following her and her family, I feel as though I know them. This time we follow Cathy as she fosters Angie and her sister Polly, they arrive and have to be fostered by Cathy because of what their older sister Ashleigh has accused their father of. The girls are young and understandably distraught at the thought of leaving their parents and their home. But as usual Cathy is absolutely brilliant with them and has such a heart of gold. All the stories are sad, but they really drive home that there are children suffering in the world. Also it was interesting to see what fostering is like in Covid times. Great catch up with Cathy and her family. Look forward to the next book.
