It is through the descriptive narration of this true story that we discover the true extent of the abuse that the author endured from her father during her childhood and as it continued as a adult. We are informed of what Jane tolerated before finding the strength to put an end to her abusive past and how she thought to protect herself and her children. This book is very moving and highly addictive as we embark on a journey of isolation and secrecy by entering a world that we would otherwise find hard to believe.
