Lost Child

The True Story of a Girl Who Couldn't Ask for Help

De: Torey Hayden

Narrado por: Lucy Rayner

The first new book from beloved therapist and writer Torey Hayden in almost fifteen years—an inspiring, uplifting tale of a troubled child and the remarkable woman who made a difference.

In a forgotten corner of Wales, a young girl languishes in a home for troubled children. Abandoned by her parents because of her violent streak, Jessie—at the age of ten—is at risk of becoming just another lost soul in the foster system.

Precocious and bold, Jessie is convinced she is possessed by the devil and utterly unprepared for the arrival of therapist Torey Hayden. Armed with patience, compassion, and unconditional love, Hayden begins working with Jessie once a week. But when Jessie makes a stunning accusation against one of Hayden’s colleagues – a man Hayden implicitly trusts – Hayden’s work doubles: now she must not only get to the root of Jessie’s troubles, but also find out if what the girl alleges is true.

A moving, compelling, and inspiring account, Lost Child is a powerful testament once again of Torey Hayden’s extraordinary ability to reach children who many have given up on—and a reminder of how patience and love can ultimately prevail.

Gripping True Story of an Abused Child

The only performance that I wished was difference was the American woman’s accent. Good listen/read.

Loved Jess

Tori Hayden does not disappoint! Great story – loved Jess. I know if you kids like this and it helped hear the perspective.

I found the accent situation distracting.

Write more Tory

it moved me. My heart died for Jess. Tory was so loving and understanding. I'm always amazed how into the story I go. Can't wait to read what's next.

Jessie Jessie Jessie

I really enjoyed reading/listening to this book. We had to read for a school bookclub and Jessie took us for a ride down the rabbit hole.. great book, great story.

This is a captivating story..

I felt Jessie’s hurt and sorry. I appreciated the loving therapy from the author. I wanted the book to go all through Jessie’s life…I truly appreciate both sides of the story.
What a brave and brilliant young lady.
