As a child, Candice knew her family wasn't what most people would consider normal. Their Christmas included lunch at Long Bay jail, where her father worked. And at home, her mother, Ocean, was rescuing lost people, and injured native animals; and collecting things from the council cleanup. In one 5-year period, Ocean fostered more than 140 children. To escape, Candice would immerse herself in her mother's collection of illustrated true crime stories.
