Neglected: Scared, hungry and alone, Jamey craves affection

Scared, hungry and alone, Jamey craves affection

By: Cathy Glass

Narrated by: Denica Fairman

Little Jamey, 2½ years old, is placed with experienced foster carer, Cathy Glass, as an emergency.

The police and social services have no choice but to remove two-year-old Jamey from home after his mother leaves him alone all night to go out partying.

When he first arrives with foster carer Cathy Glass, he is scared, hungry and withdrawn, craving the affection he has been denied for so long. He is small for his age and unsteady on his feet – a result of being left for long periods in his cot.

Cathy and her family find Jamey very easy to love, but as he settles in and makes progress, a new threat emerges. Coronavirus and lockdown change everything.

so surreal.

loved it. my grandson has been taken just as this book came into my view. I pray he will return home.He mom a hoarder and his dad drug addict. yet if not then to the next of kin. thanks so much for easing my fears

Best yet!

I love the way this author writes. Sometimes I forget that it’s not a movie because I can see everything so clearly in my mind. You almost feel like you know these people if you start from the first book. I will be so sad when the last book drops.

Politics not welcome

I love all of your books and this one was heart breaking like most. I'm happy the ending was a happy one but was a bit annoyed about ur support/message about George Floyd. Yes he was killed by a "White" police officer but he was a hardened criminal with a long history of drug use and violent crimes. He once held a gun to the stomach of a pregnant woman. He resisted arrest and wouldn't cooperate with the officers.. BLM is a terrorist group who burned down cities and murdered innocent people. No mention of that in your story. Please do all your readers a favor and leave out politics.

Great story as always

Addicted to her book as Cathy knows how to tell a story. She is through and a compassionate foster career which shows through her writing

Not Her Best But Still Good

I must have listened to nearly all of this author's books, and I have thoroughly loved them all. This one was excellently narrated as always. One of the things that threw me a bit was the overly dramatic mention and near-tribute to George Floyd. It seemed out of context and completely unnecessary. Perhaps the author needs to acquaint herself with some more in-depth details from that case.
