Another story of a youngster put into institutional care for a reason far beyond their control. Every one is heartrending as they tell of the emotional roller coaster of their growing up, their adolescence and their difficult transition into adulthood. Mark Edwards story is also inspirational. He tells how he became a Christian, met and married Lesley, had children and was ordained into the Church of England. Those few words only touch on the story told here. I read it at just over one sitting – I fell asleep and had to finish it in the morning. As Cliff Richard says, ‘an amazing and powerful story’.
