Lullabies for Little Criminals - Tapa blanda

Baby's mother died soon after she was born. She's never staying anywhere long enough to call it home, and now Baby is losing the only constant in her life; her father. He's been sent to hospital and she's been forced into foster care. She longs for his return; other people's families are no substitute for her own. Starved of affection, Baby is attracted to all the wrong people. And when her father betrays her, she is sent to a juvenile detention centre. Is Baby ultimately wise enough to realise that salvation rests in her hands alone?
