In her new book, Cathy Glass, the no.1 bestselling author of
Damaged, tells the story of the Alice, a young and vulnerable girl
who is desperate to return home to her mother.
Alice, aged four, is snatched by her mother the day she is due
to arrive at Cathy's house. Drug-dependent and mentally ill, but
desperate to keep hold of her daughter, Alice's mother snatches her
from her parents' house and disappears.
Cathy spends three anxious days worrying about her whereabouts
before Alice is found safe, but traumatised. Alice is like a little
doll, so young and vulnerable, and she immediately finds her place
in the heart of Cathy's family. She talks openly about her mummy,
who she dearly loves, and how happy she was living with her
maternal grandparents before she was put into care. Alice has
clearly been very well looked after and Cathy can't understand why
she couldn't stay with her grandparents.
It emerges that Alice's grandparents are considered too old
(they are in their early sixties) and that the plan is that Alice
will stay with Cathy for a month before moving to live with her
father and his new wife. The grandparents are distraught Alice has
never known her father, and her grandparents claim he is a violent
drug dealer.
Desperate to help Alice find the happy home she deserves,
Cathy's parenting skills are tested in many new ways. Finally
questions are asked about Alice's father suitability, and his true
colours begin to emerge."
