Three lives...

Three paths...

One shared destiny...

Shattered Paths is the first instalment in a powerful trilogy that follows the intertwined lives of three children-Oliver, Emma, and Jack-each navigating the harsh realities of the foster care system. This debut novel focuses on Jack, whose world is defined by neglect, abandonment, and a relentless search for connection. His story, told with raw emotion and unwavering honesty, sheds light on the darkest aspects of the care system. Experience Jack's pain, his fleeting moments of hope, and the powerful bonds he forms with those who share his journey.

Daniel Rolph, drawing from his own tumultuous journey through the UK care system, brings a deeply personal perspective to Shattered Paths. Adopted and re-entered into foster care during his youth, Rolph's debut novel is a reflection of his own experiences and those of countless others who have faced similar challenges. Through this powerful story, Daniel seeks to illuminate the often-unseen realities of foster care and child abuse and neglect, raising awareness and fostering empathy.
