This book was absolutely heartbreaking to read, it was well written and I couldn’t put it down, am glad Patrick Ryan got what he deserved it’s a shame that the foster parents got away and Debbie’s father passed away both getting away with all the sexual abuse they did,
The saddest part for me was when Debbie’s brother David passed away poor guy suffered so much abuse and turned to drinking that it took his life how ever Debbie and Laraine pulled together to get justice for themselves and they definitely won the case, A happy ending.
