About this ebook

Aged nine Joss came home from school to discover her father's suicide. She's never gotten over it.

This is the true story of Joss, 13 who is angry and out of control. At the age of nine, Joss finds her father’s dead body. He has committed suicide. Then her mother remarries and Joss bitterly resents her step-father who abuses her mentally and physically.

Cathy takes Joss under her wing but will she ever be able to get through to the warm-hearted girl she sees glimpses of underneath the vehement outbreaks of anger that dominate the house, and will Cathy be able to build up Joss’s trust so she can learn the full truth of the terrible situation?

I just love love Cathy Glass books... I just get lost in them and feel like I'm really there and part of her family... What a wonderful woman that has changed so many young people's lives for the better... Poor Joss having to find her Daddy after he had taken his own life 😓😓😓 I can't imagine ever coping with that let alone for a 9 year old no one should have to face that... What a brave courageous young lady... She worked so hard for a better life and I'm glad things were alot brighter towards the end of the book if anyone deserves a happy ending Joss does... It's 5 stars from me 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🤗👍

As always read in the space of 2 days! Cathys books are always impossible to put down. This was another fantastic story. I've read almost all of Cathys books so I did pretty much predict what was going on between Joss and her step father. Thanks Cathy - you're an inspiration
