About the book
"When Joss came to me she was angry, upset and confused. At the age of nine, she returned home from school to find her father's lifeless body in the garage. Four years later she was still hurting. She was smoking cannabis, drinking alcohol, stealing, going missing and was in trouble with the police and at school. Time was running out and I was her last chance."--Page 4 of cover.
