When Reece arrives at Cathy's door aged 7 years old, he has already passed through the hands of four different carers in four weeks. As the details of his short life emerge, it becomes clear that to help him, Cathy will face her biggest challenge yet. The latest title from the author of Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller Damaged. Reece is the last of six siblings to be fostered. Having been in care for four months his aggressive and disruptive behaviour has seen him passed from carer to carer. Although only 7, he has been excluded from school, and bites people so often that his mother calls him 'Sharky'. Cathy wants to find the answers for Reece's distressing behaviour, but he has been sworn to secrecy by his mother, and will not tell them anything. As the social worker prepares for the final hearing, he finds five different files on Reece's family, and is incredulous that he had not been removed from them as a baby. When the darkest of family secrets is revealed to Cathy, Reece's behaviour suddenly starts to make sense, and together they can begin to rebuild his life.

I have read all of the books written by Cathy Glass to date. Like the rest, this tells a truly touching story of a little boy who has suffered abuse. The little boy is fostered by Cathy herself, while the court finds whats best for the him. It is very well written, and is one of that books that you just want to keep reading. Provides moments of happiness, yet can also bring a tear to the eye.

As you will see i have writtena areview for most of the books written by Cathy Glass as i am unable to put them down when i start to read them, This book touched me as i found it hard to see how any mother was able to bring children into this world and not want to love and look after them like they were Glass( sorry for the pun) i am a mother of two with a 13yr age gap and they are my world, its not just the love i give but every minute of my time is spent with them and showing them how to live life to the max, thank goodness for outstanding foster parents like Cathy Glass.

 Another Great Book
