THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER When a fancy car pulls up outside six-year-old Marie's home in Oldham, in 1959, she is told she is going on holiday... In fact, she is taken to live in a convent, overseen by a cruel and sadistic nun. There, a horrific ritual of physical, sexual and mental abuse begins.

Brilliantly well told true story
Both my dad and myself read this book and we both agreed that it's was a very harrowing, sad and shocking thing that happened to this poor girl and other kids, a brilliantly written book on one woman's experience and her life afterwards, really enjoyed it, helped me appreciate my loving and caring parents and upbringing, highly recommended.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New

It arrived on time and is good quality. I've not read it. It was bought for people to read in a holiday cottage.

Excellent
This book was very sad but moving. I could not put it down. At times it made me feel uncomfortable although the story was fictional the facts were so true. My heart goes out to those young people who suffered at the hands of those evil monsters.Verified purchase: YesCondition: New
