Lucky to be alive, it&#8217;s days before she speaks her first words to Debbie Gillan, the caseworker assigned to look into her situation. It&#8217;s not long before it&#8217;s discovered the girl is Hannah.\u00a0Where has she been for the last two years? Why doesn&#8217;t she look any older? What happened to her sister Anna?
