The telling of her story, upon the 20th anniversary of her rescue, offers enlightening hindsight into what enabled her to overcome a lost childhood. The book includes never-before-told details of her ordeal and the surprising discovery of never-before-heard audio tapes recorded by the kidnapper during her captivity.
