Finding Stevie: A dark secret A child in crisis

Cathy Glass

Summary

Finding Stevie is a dark and poignant true story that highlights the dangers lurking online. 
When Stevie’s social worker tells Cathy, an experienced foster carer, that Stevie, 14, is gender fluid she isn’t sure what that term means and looks it up. 
Stevie, together with his younger brother and sister, have been brought up by their grandparents as their mother is in prison. But the grandparents can no longer cope with Stevie’s behaviour so they place him in care. 
Stevie is exploring his gender identity, and like many young people he spends time online. Cathy warns him about the dangers of talking to strangers online and advises him how to stay safe. When his younger siblings tell their grandmother that they have a secret they can’t tell, Cathy is worried. However, nothing could have prepared her for the truth when Stevie finally breaks down and confesses what he’s done. 
Cathy Glass, the bestselling author, continues to explore the complexities of adolescence and fostering in her latest Sunday Times bestselling book, Finding Stevie. The memoirs of Stevie's life, personal relationships, and his journey of self-discovery in terms of gender identity, are a testament to the author's ability to delve into the heart of family dynamics and stages of personal growth. 
For fans of Maggie Hartley (Nobody Loves Me), Ann Cusack (Groomed by a Gang), Joe Cusack (Abandoned), Linda Watson-Brown (Trapped), and Veronica Clark (Deep Deception).
