"Sexual abuse is always terrible-abuse by a parent is especially painful. To protect her daughter, Janie Webster took her on a pilgrimage around the world-their courage as it is reflected in this book is inspiring;the hope and faith that sustained them both are deeply impressive."

I am reading this book right now. It is impressive. The topic is painful - yet the writing is exceptional - I think. There are phases in it that are poetic and profound. I am really enjoying this book - though it is a serious and stressful adventure for both mother and daughter. The truth that stands out is that God is faithful and will help you in your dire time of need. For me, that is not a stretch in credibility - I believe it already. But Fingernail Moon demonstrates it beautifully. Recommend. NOTE ADDED: Not a novel as a reviewer suggests. A TRUE STORY - see the title.

As many of my books I found this one second hand. I couldn't put it down after the first chapter. It is hard to believe that things like this actualy happen on a normal day to day basis.
