Right Behind You by Lisa Gardner

5.0

I work in child welfare among kids whose failings are constantly broadcast and who are often judged based on what others have done to them. I was worried about the set-up of this story and how else it could add to the mix of what children in out of home care are capable of. But it was well-written and did an excellent job of making sure it is known that nothing is one-dimensional and there are many sides to every story. It reminds that we do not become who we are without the impact of our circumstances and that those things ought to be taken into consideration. And at the end of it all, it still holds fast to a belief in family ties.
