A powerful, moving true story from Sunday Times bestseller, Maggie Hartley, Britain's most-loved foster carer. Perfect for fans of Cathy Glass.

Fourteen-year-old Kayla goes to live with Maggie after her mum is sectioned due to an ongoing battle with her mental health. Despite everything she had to cope with at home, Kayla is doing well at school, has lots of friends and has started seeing her first boyfriend, Harry. But when their relationship suddenly ends, things take a sinister turn and Maggie has to step in.

Supporting Kayla through her heartbreak, Maggie begins to get suspicious. Wherever Kayla goes, Harry is always there. At first, it seems like a coincidence, but when sinister things start to happen to both Kayla and Maggie, she realises they are both in danger.

Is it too late to keep Kayla safe?

From Britain's best-loved foster carer, a new and inspiring true story of secrets and hope.
