| Publisher Description: Would you want to know? Child abuse is an abhorrent crime often going undetected for decades due to the age of the victims. The lasting legacy of such deeds can have an impact far beyond the initial contact and can devastate the lives of more than just the survivor. Would you want to know if the person you trust your child with has hurt other children? In Breaking the Chains of Silence, we follow the story of Marie as she struggles to cope with the aftermath of what happened to her. At the age of three, she suffered sexual abuse while in day care. However, the perpetrator was never charged. Since then, she has fought a decades-long battle to heal and uncover the truth. Marie is presently arguing against the statute of limitations which has protected the perpetrator. Does it matter to you how many years ago a coach, a day care owner's husband, a church member, or anyone else abused a child? Would you still want to know? Follow her touching journey as she continues to seek the justice she needs to be able to move on from the abuse inflicted on her and protect other children in the community she lives in and beyond. It is a book which will shock you, make you mad, and ultimately have you cheering her on to victory. |
