Best Sellers: Hackney Child originally self published by Livingstone Media before being picked up by Simon & Schuster - with a two book deal.
Both books were best sellers in 2014 (Hackney Child for 5 weeks). The books were credited as telling the story, for the first time, from the perspective of the child in care and are now “required reading” in universities and on social work courses.
