|  | Turning Stones by Marc Parent
For four years, Marc Parent was a respected caseworker in New York City`s Emergency Children`s Services, a city agency created to cope with cases of suspected and actual abuse reported during the evening and nighttime hours. In his young charges he saw day-to-day bravery as well as some of the strangest twists the human soul can take. Shocking, illuminating, funny, lyrical, and above all searchingly honest, this book takes readers into a world that many would rather not contemplate. AUTHOR: Marc Parent
