In a beautifully-woven tale of intermixing timelines, Kathryn's memoir recounts a childhood of fleeting moments of beauty and unimaginable heartbreak at the hands of a devil.

When Kathryn's mom Blanche leaves their father, moves the family, and marries his cousin, an unknown evil enters her world. Still a young girl, Kathryn and her two sisters suffer sexual, physical, and emotional abuse at the hands of their mother's new husband, Don.

Using her past experiences, Kathryn shares her stories to penetrate deep reservoirs of pain and relate to other survivors of child abuse. What follows in this narrative memoir is a raw, personal account of events, thoughts, and feelings from Kathryn in hopes that what she shares will aid in the healing of others.
