Discover the incredible memoirs of internationally bestselling author Casey Watson with this free extended eBook sampler of Caseyâ€™s first book, and Sunday Times bestseller, The Boy No One Loved. Justin was five years old; his brothers two and three. Their mother, a heroin addict, had left them alone again. Later that day, after trying to burn down the family home, Justin was taken into care. Six years on, after 20 failed placements, Justin arrives at Caseyâ€™s home. Casey and her husband Mike are specialist foster carers. They practice a new style of foster care that focuses on modifying the behaviour of profoundly damaged children. They are Justinâ€™s last hope, and it quickly becomes clear that they are facing a big challenge. Try as they might to make him welcome, he seems determined to strip his life of all the comforts they bring him, violently lashing out at schoolmates and family and throwing any affection they offer him back in their faces. After a childhood filled with hurt and rejection, Justin simply doesnâ€™t want to know. But, as it soon emerges, this is only the tip of a chilling iceberg. A visit to Justinâ€™s mother on Boxing Day reveals that there are some very dark underlying problems that Justin has never spoken about. As the full picture becomes clearer, and the horrific truth of Justinâ€™s early life is revealed, Casey and her family finally start to understand the pain he has sufferedâ€¦
