A shocking true tale of childhood abuse at the hands of a stranger.

Sophie Jenkins is living a happy life in the idyllic Dorset countryside when she meets Martin Brett, the man who will go on to abuse her and haunt her dreams for years to come. A momentary act of neglect leads to a horrible series of events that leaves her changed forever. Badly let down by the adults entrusted to care for her, Sophie’s life begins to spiral downward.

However, Sophie’s message is ultimately one of hope and empowerment. She is in the process of rebuilding her life when fate leads her to encounter her childhood attacker once again. The story ends with a truly shocking climax.

Heartbreaking

The true story of a brave little girl and the horrific events of her childhood

heartbreaking

definitely think the narrator should of been younger. the story itself was very touching. this poor kid and the mother not having any sense of danger was so maddening. I hope she gets to a better place with her mom. so glad the donation go to a good causes. healing is super important

Always learning what to look for

As many of these stories I have listened to, each one still leaves me heartbroken and horrified. This girl was incredibly strong & the grace she has handled this abuse with is impressive. Every one of these subjects I have read/listened to teaches me something else to watch for. Always learning what signs to watch for and hoping I can help any child that is in such an awful situation!

Sad and true to often

Sad story that needs to be told. Too often signs are overlooked dismissed or punished. It takes only one person to reach out and care just a little
