This book is a collection of the most harrowing, touching and shocking stories of victimisation and abuse of women, all of whom have lived through their ordeals to at last tell their incredible stories of emotional and physical survival against all the odds. From grim true stories of imprisonment, sexual slavery, and enforced prostitution to accounts of systematic abuse within the family unit, the accounts in Lost Girls beg the question of how such evil can exist in so-called civilised society and at the same time inspire respect and awe in the reader. The twenty victims have struggled through unimaginable hardship to see better days and who are now able to live with dignity despite the pain of the past. A chilling volume of human lives gone wrong, and a testament to the strength of the female spirit.
