Nine-year-old Archie and his five-year-old sister, Bobbi, are taken into emergency police protective custody after an incident of domestic violence at their family home.

Rosie collects the children from their out-of-hours foster carer on New Year’s Day and instantly recognises Archie from a domestic violence workshop she helped with. Rosie remembers that when asked what he enjoyed most about the course, Archie said: ‘the biscuits’.

Social workers are concerned that Archie and Bobbi have been neglected. As Rosie gets to know the children, she begins to suspect that something far more disturbing lies in their past.

Archie, jovial and polite, bats away Rosie’s attempts to talk to him about anything serious with witty one-liners and sophisticated distractions. Bobbi reacts violently, lashing out and throwing herself around. Rosie has never seen a child as young a Bobbi behaving so viciously, but it is Archie she is most concerned about as the weeks go by.

After a worrying incident at school, Archie tearfully discloses the truth – a shocking secret that has left him and his sister traumatised. Horrified at what she learns, Rosie is determined to help the young siblings find a forever-home that will provide them with the love and care they deserve.

'On every page there is the mark of someone who has spent many long hours in the trenches of child protection, but has not allowed it to deaden her passion and energy.’

This was another good book by this author, they are very hard to read because of the problems that a lot of the children in her care have to go threw but it's always heart warming to read about the care and love she shows them. Rosie always fights to do what is best for the children in her care and is determined to find out the truth so she can help them get the love they deserve. Bobby and Archie are 9 and five years old and are removed from there home after social services become concerned for there safety. Bobby throws tantrums and has regular melt downs that makes Rosie shocked to see such a young child behave in the way she does. However as the weeks progress it's Archie her brother who Rosie becomes more concerned about. after he finally reveals the secret of there past, Rosie is determined to make sure they find that forever home where they can be loved. Rosie is a great foster carer who does everything she can for the children in her care even sometimes going beyond the call of duty. The reader handles the subject matter very sensitively and reads the books very well. Looking forward to hopeful future books by this author.

powerful and full of emotion.

My heart goes out to all the kids who are suffering. I suffered back in the 70's, not un-similar to Archie and Bobbi. You do a fantastic job as a foster carer and Mother.

Great Read
