The eleventh instalment in the popular Thrown Away Children paperback series.�Michelle and Andy are thrilled to be fast-tracked into fostering and are quickly paired with 7-year-old Milo - whom they hope will complete their family, making a 'pigeon pair' with their older daughter, Grace.�But Milo tears through their home like a raging tornado, destroying a beautiful interior - and their lives. Their dream of a new homelife costs Michelle her job, thousands of pounds in damages to their home and car, and leaves them with a traumatised daughter in need of professional support.�What are the secrets of his violent and destructive behaviours? Experienced foster carer Louise Allen steps in. Can she uncover the little boy's disturbing past and help him?
