Daniel just wants a place to belong…

With his parents in and out of prison, Daniel has spent the last three years in a children’s home, feeling forgotten and with nowhere to truly belong.

When he arrives at Casey and Mike’s, his challenging and unpredictable behaviour soon reveals a much darker past than anyone had imagined.

Can Casey find a way to reach Daniel and help him build a brighter future before it’s too late?

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.

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.
