Splintered: A True Story About Multiple Personalities

When six-year-old Lucinda suffers horrendous abuse, her mind splinters, and she dissociates so that she doesn't have to deal with the pain. As memories reappear, like flashes of lightning in a black sky, she writes them down, and realizes that she is broken. Like a jigsaw puzzle with pieces missing, she must put herself back together.

"Rarely does one read the horrendous experience of a child and still feel the need to finish the story. This is a beautifully written story. The child's narration completely transforms our perception of childhood abuse."

-Gail Bobbin, Domestic Violence Task Force
