Synopsis
How do you begin to help a child combat their demons?
From Sunday Times bestselling author Angela Hart, The Girl With Two Lives is an honest, deeply personal account of the realities of life as a foster carer.
Twelve-year-old Danielle has been excluded from a special school and her former foster family can no longer cope. She arrives as an emergency placement at the home of foster carer Angela, who soon suspects that there is more to the young girl's disruptive behaviour than meets the eye. Can her specialist training unlock the horrors of Danielle's past and help her start a brave new life?
A heartfelt, emotional memoir recounting the story behind one of Angela's toughest placements yet, The Girl with Two Lives is testament to the difference that quiet care, a watchful eye and sympathetic ear can make in a child's life.
