My Thoughts on The Girl in the Dark by Angela Hart. Start from the end.

Melissa is a sweet-natured girl with a disturbing habit of running away and mixing with the wrong crowd. After she’s picked up by the police, and with nowhere else to go, she is locked in a secure unit with young offenders. Social Services beg specialist foster carer Angela to take her in, but can she keep the testing twelve-year-old safe? And will Angela ever learn what, or who, drove Melissa to run and hide, sometimes in the dead of night?

The Girl in the Dark by Angela Hart Published by Bluebird
You really need to read the end of this book before you begin from the start, as you never really know why Melissa, put into the care of foster carer Angela and husband Jonathan, is running away and going missing for weeks at a time until you read the final pages and learn of Angela’s suspicions and theory of why. Then you find little clues through the book and can see the evidence of what might have been happening to Melissa during her time in the care of Angela. Another great read from Angela Hart.
