Nine-year-old Archie and his five-year-old sister, Bobbi, are taken
into emergency police protective custody after an incident of
domestic violence at their family home. Rosie collects the children
from their out-of-hours foster carer on New Year's Day and
instantly recognises Archie from a domestic violence workshop she
helped with. Rosie remembers that when asked what he enjoyed most
about the course, Archie said: 'the biscuits'. Social workers are
concerned that Archie and Bobbi have been neglected. As Rosie gets
to know the children, she begins to suspect that something far more
disturbing lies in their past. Archie, jovial and polite, bats away
Rosie's attempts to talk to him about anything serious with witty
one-liners and sophisticated distractions. Bobbi reacts violently,
lashing out and throwing herself around. Rosie has never seen a
child as young a Bobbi behaving so viciously, but it is Archie she
is most concerned about as the weeks go by. After a worrying
incident at school, Archie tearfully discloses the truth - a
shocking secret that has left him and his sister traumatised.
Horrified at what she learns, Rosie is determined to help the young
siblings find a forever-home that will provide them with the love
and care they deserve.
