Im so sorry, Casey, my link worker John said, sounding weary. I know this is probably the worst time I could ring you, but we desperately need someone to take a child tonight.
Its the night before Christmas when Casey and Mike get the call. A twelve year old girl, stuck between a rock and a hard place. Her father is on a ventilator, fighting for his life, while her mother is currently on remand in prison. Despite claiming she attacked him in self-defence, shes been charged with his attempted murder.

The girl is called Bella, and shes refusing to say anything. The trouble is that she is also the only witness

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.
