The story rises from the 1960s, a time when girls did not own rights to their bodies and no social or legal definitions existed for acquaintance rape. Impregnated by a rapist posing as a boyfriend, Kathleen was socially and religiously condemned and shunted away to a home for unwed mothers to hide the evidence of her sins. The guaranteed confidential adoption process was the lifeline that allowed teenaged Kathleen to believe that her mutilating ordeal was over. But people have a way of betraying secrets, even after 30 years, and certain strangers won't stop the hunt until they destroy what never belonged to them. Ambushed by the recurrence of the crippling trauma from her past, Kathleen was left with two choices: speak or be destroyed. Kathleen chose to speak.
