Eight year old Keeley looks like the sweetest little girl you could wish to meet, but demons from the past make her behavior far from angelic. She takes foster carer Angela on a rocky and very demanding emotional ride as she fights daily battles against her deep-rooted psychological problems. Can the love and specialist care Angela and husband Jonathan provide help Keeley triumph against the odds?
