The most recent global five-star Amazon Review:
'Subject which needs wider public attention. Sibling sexual abuse is the most common form of intra-familial child sexual abuse, at least 3x more common than parent/child incest. Yet it's rarely talked about in society or reported by the media. Charting the author's experience of sibling sexual abuse over many years, her disclosure in adulthood and her journey towards healing and recovery, this powerfully written book should be essential reading for all social workers, counsellors and mental health specialists as well as anyone personally affected by this issue. Gritty, truthful and ultimately uplifting and redemptive - an outstanding work that deserves a wide audience.' - Stuart Allardyce, Director, Stop It Now! UK and Ireland, | Lucy Faithfull Foundation UK and co-author, with Peter Yates, of 'Sibling Sexual Abuse: A Knowledge and Practice Overview' for the Centre of Expertise on Child Sexual Abuse.
