Looking For J J

Synopsis:
Our heroine seems a lot like many other 17-year-old girls -chatty, scruffy, excited about a new boyfriend and working in a coffee shop before going to university. But, as she confides in her MySpace blog and simultane-ously to us, the audience, she's not like ordinary teenage kids at all. At the age of 10, Jennifer Jones, aka JJ, killed her best friend. Released from detention after six years, she now lives with a social worker, under a new identity. Unfortunately, both the press, and her own feckless mother, are anxious to discover the present whereabouts of the girl who became a national sensation after the killing. Doubtless inspired by such reallife cases as Mary Bell and the killers of James Bulger, Cassidy examines what might drive a child to kill, and what the consequences of such a catastrophe might be.
- Charles Spencer, Daily Telegraph
