After taking a few weeks off work, Casey is presented with a new foster child: 14-year-old Elise, whose Mum left her at just five years old.
At first, sheâs no trouble at all, that is until she falsely accuses another carer, Jan, of acting inappropriately towards her. It turns out this isnât the first lie Elise has told â her previous carer was constantly following up allegations Elise had made of people bullying her, trying to have sex with her, or hurting her physically. With some reservations, Casey agrees to take Elise on long-term, but when she makes some dark claims about her mum, Casey doesnât know whether to believe her. In any case, she is determined to find out the truth...

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 âdifficultâ children â removed from mainstream classes for various reasons â that the idea for her future career was born.
Casey is married with two children and three grandchildren.
