It is hard to believe that a mother could be so cruel. Interesting book that delves into the depths of madness.

This story is a horrifying example of how children can turn against a parent after years of mental abuse. It gives a background of the principal characters from earliest childhood, thus giving the reader an insight into the ultimate conclusion.

This book is the author's first.
