Publisher Description: An orphan's dearest dream becomes her nightmare... Until age 9, Sharon had been in an orphanage most of her young life craving a family of her own. Her wishes were granted when her biological mother came and rescued Sharon from a lonely world. Within a year, her stepfather began touching her and her life quickly became a fight for survival. Sharon would not submit easily but survived with her wits alone. Although Sharon is yet a small ripple in a sea of survivors, her experiences will help many to understand the trauma and recovery of small children who live and breathe the sins perpetrated by a caregiver. In 2007, she took a polygraph test (lie detector) and passed as a non-deceptive (truthful person) for the accusations made against step-father. She challenged him to do the same-he refused Therapists' Acclaim for the House Full of Whispers "This is the story of one girl's fear and battle to survive the emotional traumas and deprivation of her past. I can thoroughly recommend this book which will help anyone who is, or has, suffered abuse." --Lynda Bevan, author Life After Betrayal "A very honest account, and a very accurate view of the feelings, thoughts and behaviors of people traumatized in childhood and youth. If you suffered in childhood, or are in a helping position to those who have, then you must read this book." --Robert Rich, PhD, author Cancer: A Personal Challenge Learn more at www.SharonWallace.co.uk Book #1 in the Whispers Trilogy From Modern History Press www.ModernHistoryPress.com BIO022000 Biography & Autobiography: Women SEL001000 Self-Help: Abuse - General PSY022040 Psychology: Psychopathology - Post Traumatic Stress Disorder |
