Facing Demons is an inspirational YA fiction novel that follows the journeys of four teenagers as they tackle their problems whilst at the Anchor Beach Rehabilitation Clinic. The facilitator, Blake Solomon, has succeeded in his own battle with cancer and feels obliged to pass on this second chance to those who deserve it.
The first-person views of each of the four main characters—Felicity, Jason, Matthew, and Rebecca—give vital insight into their developing minds and conflicting ideals. One by one, they are each able to tell their heart-wrenching stories of lives tainted by drugs, alcohol, self-harm, abuse, gangs, child prostitution, and homelessness.
Reaching beyond the depths of despair, where all hope seems lost, the four teenagers attempt to find ways to face their demons.
