About Clara AtmaneWorking for many years as a social worker and then a lawyer with victims of abuse, the author has firsthand insight into how our criminal justice system fails victims and has seen how the very methods people use to protect themselves can actually make them compromised witnesses. As an abuse victim herself, she knows the shame of hidden secrets, the feelings of unworthiness, the impatience waiting for justice, the extreme difficulty in telling the truth, and the relief of survival.
The truth is often hurtful and often misses its mark causing the wrong people to suffer. So all names have been changed and locations made anonymous to avoid causing harm. The author lives with best buddy, her dog, Casey, surrounded by her extended family of friends. |
