Dear Daughter, If you never meet me... I want you to know that my first thoughts of you were full of hope. As you grew inside me, I knew nothing about you, and I was still so deeply in love with you that I could hardly think. Pretty soon the past caught up, though. The walls closed in. The traps were set. I can't allow them to win. As long as I am still standing the fight is on. One day we will read this letter together and laugh in victory. I'm living for that day. A child grows inside Madeleine. She fears for its future. No home, no family, renowned as a chaotic, rebellious nuisance by social services, she is already branded an unfit mother. But this time, she will fight. She will never give up, she declares, even if it kills her, not realising her struggle just drives her further into anger... into the margins of society and into the hands of those people planning to remove the child from her care before she even leaves the maternity ward.
