Publisher's Synopsis
Clare Rafienne and her daughter, Sloan, live a simple life in the mountains of rural Pennsylvania. The last thing Clare expected was to have social services show up on her doorstep and remove her daughter. As Clare fights the misguided bureaucracy that holds her family's fate in their reports, Sloan struggles to survive the foster system. And John Avery, newly appointed to the case and the job, is doing everything he can to make things right again. While Clare, John, and Clare's friend Annie battle the system meant to protect children, they face consecutive hurdles that could ultimately save Sloan... or destroy her.
