Evil walked in...

From No.1 bestselling author Toni Maguire comes a new true story of abuse and survival - written in aid of NSPCC, with a portion of the royalties being donated to the charity.

Gerry was only a young girl when she was first abused by her father. After her mother found out, and believing there was nothing she could do to help her child, nor deal with the stigma attached to it in their small Northern Irish town in the 1960s, she committed suicide.

Gerry and her siblings were split up and placed in different foster homes, all knowing they were unlikely to see each other ever again. Told that her mother had committed a grave sin, Gerry was completely alone and abandoned as she confronted even more horrors from her past.

After years of shame and isolation, she finally met a man who would help her heal the wounds she had been left with. With his love and support, Gerry decided it was time for her story to be told.

Why, Father? is her true and moving story of survival.

This review has also been shared on our Facebook group, fostering, memoirs and non fiction books and Toni Maguire fans of her books of children who have fallen through the net if you wish to join, both include the brilliant Toni maguire herself and updates of new books and upcoming projects.

‘Why father?’ is a profound recollection of what it truly means to be a survivor rather than a victim of violence and child abuse. It explores how Gerry was groomed and abused by the very hands who should have been protecting her.
It’s both deeply shocking & disturbing that Gerri not only suffered at the hands of her very own father but also the local priest.

Why father? Is a true survivor story of overcoming trauma, child abuse, violence, suffering and recovering from trauma, including sucide.

Gerri’s recollection of the abuse she suffered as a child is a core shocking as well as a true tragedy of silence & powerlessness.

Praise for Gerri for her bravery to stand up and be heard 50+ years on, as well as her courage and determination not to be silenced anymore. The fact that Gerri speaks up as survivor many years on, shows a significant shift in empowerment, by highlighting her own resilience and courage. May, other survivors of abuse find their voices and be heard. Gerri is living proof that it’s never too late to be stand up & be heard!

If you’ve only began to read the fantastic Toni Maguire - there are many more voices like Gerri’s to be heard!

Heartbreaking but also lovely and very brave story. Jerrys life turned around in the end and I wish her all the very best.

What a brave little girl & thank God she's come out stronger. There are many stories of cruelty amongst priests & nuns but this priest was the lowest of the low hopefully God will take his revenge on men like him. I just wish the woman who fostered Gerrie had been prosecuted for her cruelty.

Pure and utter evil!! Heartbreaking what this innocent little girl, and many others, went through. I pray the evil priest, the so called man that had the cheek to call himself her dad and Mrs Donaldson get their comeuppance! Pure evil and despicable humans! Geri should feel very proud of her strength, courage and resilience xx

Utterly heartbreaking but an amazing story of strength and courage
