Official synopsis Publisher
This is the story of Emily and Faye, two beloved sisters linked in life and in loss. After tragedy, the path to hope-the road to Serenity Welfare-was born.
‘When my lovely sister, Faye, passed away suddenly in her thirties, I was faced with the dilemma of reclaiming her daughters. If Faye had not passed away, there would be no Serenity Welfare, and I want to show people that out of great loss and pain, something incredible has evolved to help vulnerable children and young people.’
The power of kindness is so far-reaching and long-lasting-if you can save a life, you can save a generation.
– Emily Aklan,
