On the outside, it looked as though Esmene Munroe had a perfect life. She grew up in a loving two-parent home with her siblings, did well in school and went to college. She was happily married with two children and had a career she enjoyed. But as time went on, the lock on Esmene's closet broke and all the skeletons of her childhood came tumbling out. From then on, Esmene allowed herself to be consumed by the mental illness that she had always managed to keep at bay. Just when it looked like Esmene, a victim of pedophilia, lost her will to live, she accepted the fact that she needed help and embarked on a journey of self-discovery, truth, and acceptance.
