For readers of Nobody's Girl and What My Bones Know and those horrified by the recent Epstein revelations, a brave debut memoir by a woman who spent her 1960s Chicago childhood trapped in a web of child sex trafficking.

When Catherine is five years old, her family relocates from a blue-collar town outside of Chicago to an affluent lakeshore suburb. Is the real reason for their move the mysterious house fire her father insists was set by neighborhood teens--or are even darker forces at play?

Meanwhile, behind the scenes, Catherine's father has been an eager participant in a lucrative underground pedophile network seeking to expand its operations. From babyhood, he has trained her to service clients--and contracted her out as a sex slave to wealthy elites.

This poignant tale of betrayal unveils the architecture of organized pedophilia--and delivers a blueprint for its demise--even as its lighthearted moments, glimmers of hope, and experiential wisdom regarding how victims impacted by trauma can pursue healing from PTSD and C-PTSD offer inspiration to survivors of abuse and those who help them. A must-read for anyone troubled by the reality of child sex trafficking, this timely exposé of the abuses of the rich and powerful will resonate deeply with survivors, their advocates, and mental health professionals--while serving as a wake-up call to us all about the extent of depravity and injustice that exists all around us, hidden in plain sight.
