He said I was filthy and wicked. He said it would make me pure. I was only five years old...Enslaved by their white foster family, the only love and affection Harmony and her two sisters experienced came from each other. When Harmony attempted to get help nobody believed her...until it was too late. The three little girls were emotionally shattered by the abuse and only Harmony survived to tell this tragic tale. She knew she had to escape or die. This is the incredibly moving true story of a little girl who was betrayed by the people supposed to protect her, and how she finally found somewhere to belong.

'An emotional read that'll provoke anger and sadness' -- Closer
Rarely has such broad and deep human suffering been portrayed so elequently, to reflect the horror inflicted on one soul.
An account to pay tribute to Harmony and to bring hope to others who have not had their flame extinguisted by intolerable suffering at the hands of men and women, who,s first crime is ignorance but not their defence. -
