From the bestselling author of One Child comes the story of three of former special education teacher Torey Hayden’s most extraordinary challenges.
Nine-year-old Cassandra, kidnapped by her father and found starving, dirty, and picking through garbage cans—is a child prone to long silences and erratic, violent behavior.
Charming, charismatic four-year-old Drake will speak only in private to his mother—while his tough, unbending grandfather's demands for an immediate cure threatens to cause irreparable harm.
And though she had never worked with adults, Hayden agrees to help fearful and silent eighty-two-year-old massive stroke victim Gerda—discovering in the process that a treatment's successes could prove nearly as heartbreaking as its limitations.

    Sad and touching. The author's style is at times too academic, but the professional experiences she shares are precious. It shows you how much time and efforts, including professional help, commitment and caring are needed to help an abuse child recover. Its also interesting to look at approaches used in those times to treat patients.

    It’s time to open up the door on the Troubled Place and clean all that junk out. Not to throw it away, because those are part of your memories, part of what makes you ‘you.’ But it’s time to make them ordinary. To talk about them until you understand how you felt, what you did, what other people did. To talk about them until there aren’t any secrets left in your Troubled Place to stay fresh and scary, to talk until you’re bored with them. That will turn them into just ordinary memories, like all the rest of the memories of your life.”

    When you first do it, first create a Troubled Place and manage to get it locked up, it’s easy to think you’ve made it go away. But, in fact, this is the weird thing about Troubled Places. Just the opposite is true. A Troubled Place works just like a freezer does. Everything you put in there, it keeps really fresh, like it’s just happened. So if you accidentally crack open the door on the Troubled Place and look at anything that’s in there, that thing will hurt horribly all over again.”
