A childhood such as mine

 

“Maybe my story can be a tiny beam of light in a large, dark cave,” says Anneke Lucas in the podcast that begins to tell her story, from her book QUEST FOR LOVE.

“Elite pedophilia is the world’s best protected secretMany of these stories can never be told because the victims are dead.

“Dedicated to All the Victims and Survivors of the World-wide Network, Anneke begins to share events out of one year of her life, her voice supported by the understanding of herself as an adult. The child’s circumstances are brutal; she is being sold by a mentally ill mother into a murderous pedophile network. Quest for Love is the journey she took from abuse to healing, to transformation. On this podcast, we begin that journey in Anneke’s own words:

“It requires courage to read my story, which sheds light on a truth that has been successfully hidden for too long. Absorbing this truth is the most important and the most helpful thing one can do.”
