About this ebook
There are things that happen behind closed doors that most people know nothing about. This is a story about survival that some are not as fortunate enough as I have been to live through and recount. It is a story that must be shared because it voices the plight of so many silent and silenced people who are still suffering silently, fighting dark shadows that constantly hover, overpowering their will to even attempt to see the light.
