Publisher's Synopsis
Small and dyslexic, with a short fuse, bad teeth, a prison record and something to prove, Marguerite McNaughton - Maggsie - doesn't need anybody or anything, thank you very much. She's more than capable of looking after herself. She's also aout to discover that everyone needs someone, sometimes. Even her. The thing about trusting others, though, is that not everyone is trustworthy. It starts when a fellow inmate gives Maggsie reading lessons. Then she's offered a job in London as a kitchen assistant, together with supported accommodation and a colleague who seems determined to befriend Maggsie, no mater what. At first Maggsie is convinced nothing will change. Especially her.
