Do you remember when you were four years old? Some people remember it as though it were just yesterday. I am one of those people. I believed in Santa Claus and the tooth fairy...and in spite of insurmountable odds...in happy endings. 

The completion of this book was the beginning of 'my' happy ending. I believe that those who bare the scars of pain are never truly free...they owe a debt to those who still suffer.

I thank my Lord and saviour Jesus Christ for granting me the strength to write this book. Without Him, this book would not have been possible.

And so I share with you this fiction, based on a true story, compelling story of a four-year-old little girl named Mary and her life 'before'...'during'...and 'after' these crimes against nature were committed against her, and I pray that in turn you will share it with others. A precious fragile childhood is a terrible thing to lose, and no child should be robbed of it. If you are a 'silent victim', or know someone who has been, or suspect someone who is being violated against their will, I urge you to contact your local 'abuse prevention' hotlines. You don't have to leave your name...you may remain anonymous if you so wish.
