Review: I've read quite a few of this author's fostering memoirs now-this was one of her best. I pre-ordered this-but didn't read it as soon as it came out. I kept seeing comments in groups where people were wanting to discuss the happenings-and I avoided looking at them as I didn't want to spoil it for when I read it. I saved this book for the Christmas and New Year holiday-when I would be able to just sit and read and read, and be able to really get my teeth into it. I'm so glad I did. It was fantastic, intriguing, and shocking. One of her best books in a while, I think, and highly recommend it. Two young children are removed from their parents' care, and come to stay with Cathy and her family. The case is very intriguing. I thought I had guessed what might be going on-due to reading a few medical and true crime memoirs, and seeing some true crime documentaries on the TV-but I really wasn't sure, and it kept me guessing, and totally engrossed. I read it in just a couple of days. Cathy Glass usually puts updates on her site so I resisted peeking there until I'd finished the book. Some people who'd read the book had said things about the ending. I suppose, as it's real life-we don't always get the ideal ending, everything rosy etc. I thought I'd see when I got to that bit. That's what made it totally unpredictable and involving. I did look on the author's website afterwards, and she has put a bit of update information, so I think it's a must to take a look there to complete the reading experience. A great read.

Review: It was a great read and eye opener to what the system is like. So tough for a foster care
