As ever, the staff are tested when orphaned brother and sister Andy and Beth are brought to the home โ they are clearly terrified of something, and Andy refuses to be sent home, but can Sister Beatrice get to the bottom of their story before they are returned to their stepfather?
Itโs all in a dayโs work for the home โ but things are about to change forever โ will they be ready to face the future?
Cathy Sharp is happily married and lives with her husband in a small Cambridgeshire village. They like visiting Spain together and enjoy the benefits of sunshine and pleasant walks, while at home they love their garden and visiting the Norfolk seaside.
Cathy loves writing because it gives pleasure to others, she finds writing an extension of herself and it gives her great satisfaction. She says, โThere is nothing like seeing your book in print, because so much loving care has been given to bringing that book into being.โ
Cathy is also the author of the Halfpenny Street Childrenโs Home series.
