Voncile and her brother Lenard never knew their mother or father. They lived with their grandmother Lillian until one night a strange man killed her while they slept just a few doors away.
The two were taken from the only home and family they ever knew. After their grandmother's murder in Alabama, the children were sent to live in a place called Texas with a woman they were told was their great-grandmother.
With her world spiraling out of control, Voncile's brother was her last hold on reality. Then he was abruptly snatched away from her by someone who was supposed to be a man of God, but turned out to be the devil himself.
Voncile experienced evil at an early age from two men her great-grandmother trusted. Murder, deceit, lost innocence, and the separation from her beloved brother pushed Von to the limits. How much could a child endure, and how will these things affect her future?
About the Author: Veronica Voncile is a first-time author who was born in Birmingham, Alabama and currently resides in southwest Florida. Veronica was encouraged to write about her horrific experiences with childhood sexual abuse. She discovered her strength from deep within to speak out and share her life and her story, hoping it would help others realize they were not alone, letting them know they could find their voices as well. She learned that finding the power of her voice; removing the shame and guilt she'd lived with for so long, was the beginning of her healing.
