A powerful story of abuse, neglect...and hope from this well-loved
writer When a mysterious fire kills her adoptive parents,
Madeleine's worst fear comes true - she and her beloved brother
Oliver are separated. Worse still, Maddie is blamed for starting
the fire and, labelled a difficult child, she is sent to a
children's home. Far from idyllic, and buried deep in the
countryside, the home well conceals the misery of its young
occupants. Subjected to a harsh regime of abuse and degradation,
Maddie makes a brave attempt to escape. But her brief weeks of
freedom are thwarted when she is caught and taken back to River
House. Maddie clings to her determination to one day be reunited
with Oli, and it is this which gives her the strength to endure
what lies ahead. For she knows she can rely only on herself - there
is no one else to keep her safe...
