Description
The twelfth instalment in the popular Thrown Away Children paperback series.
Camila is born to childhood sweethearts, Gabriella and Robbie, who lead a privileged, but dysfunctional life. When she and her younger brother, Josh, start displaying sexualised behaviour, it’s discovered they are exposed to adult parties and they’re both placed in emergency care.
Separated, their new lives appear to go well for a while. But Camila hits puberty and a shocking wild streak that no one can stop emerges. Asked to help, Louise is horrified to unravel the appalling secret the young girl has harboured for years.
But her fight to bring Camila some peace, shatters the harmony of her own home, too.
Advance Praise
Louise Allen is a Sunday Times bestselling author
"I read this book in under 24 hours, which probably tells you everything about how gripping and emotionally immersive it is.
"There’s been a “gap” in Louise Allen’s fostering series for a while and Camila’s story fills it powerfully. It reconnects the emotional arc of the previous books and reminds you why her writing has such impact: she doesn’t just tell these children’s stories, she honours them.
"I’m grateful for the Slave Girl series, but there is something uniquely affecting about the fostering books. In the same style as Thrown Away and Slave Girl series, they are never trauma-for-shock value — they are trauma-with-context, trauma-with-humanity, and trauma-with-dignity." - Amazon review
