Officers from the RSPCA investigate reports of animal cruelty and neglect on a farm, only to discover a 5-year-old boy curled up asleep in a dog bed, amidst filth and squalor.
He has severe physical and cognitive impairments, and no one outside the family seems to know of the existence of little Jacob.
When he arrives in the Allen household, a terrified Louise wonders how on earth she will cope looking after a child with his level of physical and emotional damage. With the support of veteran social worker, Mary, the fight begins to get Jacob the support he needs – as medical investigations begin to reveal more shocking details about Jacob's story.

Boken är riktigt bra, som alla hons böcker. Störde mig dock på att man bytte uppläsaren till en man. Väldigt konstigt känslan mär man hade precis lyssnat på hennes andra böcker som upplöses av en kvinna. Det gick att vänja sig under bokens gång men hade föredragit samma uppläsare som innan.
