What lengths would you go to to save a troubled little girl?

A Sunday Times bestseller, Terrified is a deeply personal memoir from foster carer Angela Hart.

It tells the emotionally devastating but ultimately uplifting true story of Vicky, a little girl who arrives on Angela's doorstep unwanted and unloved after suffering years of emotional abuse at the hands of her mother. Desperate never to return home, Vicky is haunted by many demons and waking nightmares.

A tearjerking true story, Terrified is Angela's moving account of her determination to set Vicky free.

'A no holds barred insight into the reality of looking after someone else's children' – Casey Watson, author of Little Girl Lost

'A moving story that testifies to the redemptive power of love. I hope Angela Hart inspires many others to foster' – Torey Hayden, author of One Child
