The shocking true story behind the hit TV drama Three Girls.
When detective Maggie Oliver first discovered that children as young as 10 were being groomed, abused and trafficked for sex by gangs of men in the Rochdale area, she felt like a lonely voice calling for people to act.
Banging on closed doors, it seemed that nobody was able or willing to help her save these vulnerable girls, but she couldn't just sit back while countless lives were being destroyed forever in plain sight. Instead, she launched a one-woman campaign to bring down these sickening gangs.
This is the heartbreaking and shocking story of how the actions of one determined detective secured convictions in what is now one of the most notorious grooming cases in the UK. Along the way Maggie discovered countless examples of how the authorities were letting down our most vulnerable children. She blew the whistle, losing her job and at times her mind, in a bid to stop others from experiencing the same.
This is the first ever account from a police insider on the endemic problem of child sexual exploitation across the nation and how these cases are handled by the authorities put in place to protect us.
It tells the story of a woman brave enough to speak out and a group of girls who found the strength to fight for justice after having their lives completely shattered by their abusers; together they show in shocking detail why this must never happen again.

Skip ahead to the section that actually deals with the case mentioned in the book description, if you have a time constraint (or are the impatient-type).

I kept waiting, and waiting for her to start talking about the case, but it was just 6+ chapters detailing the author's life before the case (youthful backpacking trips around Europe & N. Africa, her relationship with her future husband, how she got her education, info on her family life, and her husband's bout with bowel cancer).
I haven't yet decided if I should keep listening (and maybe skip ahead to the actual case mentioned in the description) or just give up.
I really wish she'd had a better editor--one who had forced her to condense her bio section down to only the relevant info, because I'm sure she is losing many readers/ listeners, with it as is.
Her bio info should be condensed into 1 chapter.
