DESCRIPTION:
The Miller girls grew up isolated, fearful, and ashamed. Small town America in the 1950s is often portrayed as idyllic, as if everyone lived in a "Leave it to Beaver," kind of home. As the story opens, a murder trial threatens to expose all of the lies the Miller girls grew up protecting. That would be fine if Ward Cleaver was your father; but Chuck Miller was no Ward Cleaver and his wife, Marjorie, was definitely no June Cleaver. How will this small Southern town react once they know the truth? See no evil, hear no evil, is no longer an option; but speak no evil is quite another story.
She also knew that God was her only hope. . She knows how it feels to face tremendous obstacles. What once was her greatest shame, has now become one of her greatest victories. We all must decide our life path. She was told, "Just get over it and move on." Dorey knew how broken she was. Dorey Whittaker lives in central Virginia.

A Story of Abused Children and the Journey of Healing Wall of Silence is a story that hurts the heart. It tells of the agonies of life that many children experience today. It calls to mind, for many young adults, the traumas of growing up. It should never happen; it does. Be prepared. I highly recommend Wall of Silence. But read with the purpose of understanding the hurting hearts of these who are living (or re-living) the tragedies of being abused. Seek ways to help them open up to you; listen to them; and show them l. "A timely, tug-at-the-heart story" according to Ingrid. Loving a good book that moves quickly, this was a perfect choice. The author brings intrigue, emotion, and a little romance to a very serious story which sheds light on the very dark subject of child abuse. Dorey Whitaker does not leave her audience in that dark place, but through her characters shows that there is hope for recovery from the ill-effects of such an upbringing. I found myself experiencing fright, anguish, sadness, joy, and relief while shedding many t. Powerful book! Even though this book deals openly and honestly with the pain and horror of child abuse, it gives the reader a sense of hope. Through the love of friends and her own perseverance the main character finds meaning in her life, despite a tragic beginning. I can't wait to read the next book by Dorey!
