Description

The new fostering memoir from the Sunday Times bestselling author Casey Watson
Six-year-old Amelie lives with her mother, Kelly, who suffers from bipolar disorder. After Kelly attempts to burn down their family house, it becomes clear that her daughter is in grave danger. Amelie is quickly taken into care.

When she arrives with foster carer Casey Watson, Amelie acts much younger than her age. Casey must get to the root of Amelies behaviour, while doing what she can to keep the family together.

Will Amelie ever find the safety of home

Author Bio

Casey Watson, who writes under a pseudonym, is a specialist foster carer. She and her husband, Mike, look after children who are particularly troubled or damaged by their past. While in their care, Casey and Mike guide the foster children through a specially designed behavioural programme, enabling them to be moved on, either back to their parents on into mainstream foster care. Before becoming a foster carer Casey was a behaviour manager for her local comprehensive school. It was through working with these difficult children removed from mainstream classes for various reasons that the idea for her future career was born. Casey is married with two children and three grandchildren.
