Cynthia Has a Secret

One day, fifteen-year-old Carmina Knight’s life was perfect, and the next, she had lost everything. Her family, her home, almost everything that she knew. Alone on the streets, she can’t trust anyone, but she also can’t make it alone.

Agent Neil Crowther, haunted by his own past, is determined to find her, not just to solve a case, but to uncover the truth behind Carmina's identity and bring her to safety.

Carmina's discovery that her life has been a carefully constructed lie shatters everything left of her world. Who can she trust? Can she uncover the truth about her past while fighting to survive on the streets? Her only companion, a rag doll named Cynthia, is her sole link to a past she cannot remember.
