WILD RELEASE NOTES:
A superb book for every professional who has ever been involved in a serious child protection case. Here is Hayden, someone else who has been through the self-questioning, the hours of listening, the stress and pain, and a final resolution that ultimately excludes the person who first made tentative contact with the silent and hidden world of a child in danger.
A difficult and traumatic read on first appearances, but if you come to this as a professional working with children then I would very much recommend that you go back and read it at least two or three times. The less shocked you are by Jadie's claims, and the more you examine Hayden's descriptions of her work and thought processes, you will start to see a very different story woven into Hayden's text.

A stunning and poignant account of an extraordinary teacher's determination from the author of the #1 Sunday Times bestsellers The Tiger's Child and One Child. Jadie never spoke, never laughed, never cried. She spent every waking hour locked in her own private world of shadows. But nothing in Torey Hayden's experience had prepared her for the nightmare Jadie revealed to her when finally persuaded to break her self-imposed silence. It was a story too painful, too horrific for Hayden's professional colleagues to acknowledge. But Torey Hayden could not close her ears! or her heart. A little girl was trapped in a living hell of unspeakable memories. And it would take every ounce of courage, compassion, and love that one remarkable teacher possessed to rid the "Ghost Girl" of the malevolent spirits that haunted her.
