SECRET SCARS

By

ANN SCHOFIELD

 
  On January 5, 1991, a thirty-five year old woman was found dead in a homeless shelter in Connecticut.  Suffering from years of child abuse undoubtedly contributed to her early demise.  Secret Scars reveals the experiences of one family's struggles with the effects of abuse.

Sarah, the youngest female Flynn, will guide you through the secret scars that haunted her childhood.  It is a poignant story that mingles the tragedy of those who did not survive with the courage and strength of those who did.  Told with extraordinary strength and dignity, Secret Scars is a totally unforgettable book.

Sometimes one person's story can change a nation.
