Summary

Just a Girl is the shocking true story of Scarlett Jones, who was abused by her loved ones, groomed and trafficked by a gang, all the while fearing for her life.

I was a good girl who was just 'helping Daddy' in the hell that I called home.

Scarlett is just 8 years old when the horrific abuse at the hands of her father begins. It creates a world of shocking normality, one that she can only escape in her mind. Little Scarlett dreams of a time when she can be free... and then she meets Ed. Groomed and trafficked by her boyfriend, Scarlett realises she has been primed for abuse ever since she was a child. This is her harrowing story.

horror

such a well written and narrated book about the strength and bravery of a person who had endured so much pain. children have no power to protect themselves. they should not have to protect themselves. I don't think jurors, unless they have been through a similar experience, realise the impact they have for survivors when they convict a predator. To be believed is everything.

Brave story

Although it was difficult to listen to much of this book, I and every man should hear about the contents regularly. We should be constantly reminded so that we can spot and call out this behaviour

Just a girl

Another powerful account of abuse, it was obvious that the mother knew that the father was abusing his daughters but how alarm bells didn't ring in the school beggers belief. Thank goodness now police & schools are more in tune but I don't think so, some social workers are a disgrace & cascaf is a total waste of time & money which I've had first hand experience of, they can be easily led by lies. Thank goodness this evil father has been locked away & thank goodness finally you have gone through the tunnel & come out strong. Thank you for telling your story

It's not your fault

It's such a shame that books like this have to be written. The sad fact, is that it is still happening in one way or another.
The author is so brave in telling her story. She has told it in such a way that, makes you seriously think about your life. I listened intently. I love her style of writing.

Fantastic book

Written from the heart. Shocking what goes on in the world. Gives a good insite into how she was made to feel and would encourage more people to come forward in a similar position.

Reality check

This was a great reality check. Its incomprehensible to truly comprehend the abuse she has endured. Reading chapter after chapter I was disturbed on how continuous her life of torture was and still is in some aspects. I've never believed in capital punishment but for these serial rapists clearly prison isn't enough of a deterrence. The disgusting manner in which these men conduct themselves is truly disgusting. I wish Scarlett nothing but the best. I don't have the fucking words to express what i'm truly feeling.
