The Know by Martina Cole

Joanie Brewer’s children mean the world to her. She’d do anything to make sure they’re fed and clothed – even if it means going on the game – and she lives in constant fear that one of them will be taken from her. Eighteen-year-old Jon Jon is knee-deep in crime, and Jeanette, only fourteen, knows more than is good for her. But it’s Kira who really scares her, for in a world where no one is to be trusted, her eleven-year-old angel is the most vulnerable to danger.
