When Julia was eight, she was thrilled to be a bridesmaid for her cousin Iris. But then things began to go wrong, starting with an episode involving her cousin's baby, a pram and a secret trip round the block. Now, Julia is a child psychologist who deals with young girls said to be behaving badly. She understands which of them really are troubled, and which are just seen that way by the adults around them. One day, Julia's own troubled past starts to creep into her present and she must confront the possibility that the truth may not be as devastating as she feared.

Work Description
When Julia was eight, she was asked to be a bridesmaid at her beautiful cousin Iris's wedding. Her mother saw this as a chore--expensive, inconvenient-- but Julia was thrilled. When the time came, even the fact that her bridesmaid's dress didn't fit, and was plain cream rather than the pink she'd hoped for, couldn't ruin the day. But after this, things began to go wrong for Julia, starting with an episode involving her cousin's baby, a pram and a secret trip round the block. A lifetime later, Julia is a child psychologist working with young girls at risk. In her sessions, Julia has a knack for determining which of her young patients are truly troubled, and which are simply at the mercy of the oppressive adults around them.
