it was amazing

Ms Hylton is a superb journalist and author. Her devotion to research, compiling the details and delivering the stories is impeccable. Her audio narration adds an emotional depth to the heartbreaking stories.

The end of the epilogue provides this summary, which resonates with me: Mental health can only be helped with hope and healing of the soul.

Kristine Love your quote from the Epilogue. So sad that for most individuals in this book, Healing of the Soul did not happen. We need to do much better.
