The work this author does is very commendable but reading about it.... it got repetitive very quickly. The book is full of the chats she had with these men online while posing as a 13 yr old and basically they all followed the same pattern. I was disappointed, I was hoping to read more about the problem itself (which she does touch on, but only briefly). As for the word "Harrowing" in the title of the book, I never found it. The closest she came to most of these men was giving her testimony in court. Not sure if "harrowing" is the correct word for that. She also felt the need to defend herself throughout the book, the reasons she does this, where she went to college, her degrees, I didn't feel that was pertinent. Her true reason was her son had been approached by a pedophile and she wanted to protect other children. Good enough reason right there.
