A Will To Survive

When Jeni Haynes’s childhood was shattered by unimaginable abuse at the hands of her father, her mind created hundreds of different personalities - or alters - each
designed to help her survive the unbearable pain. For years no one believed her story of what she endured. But with the help of a psychiatrist and police detectives, Jeni resolved to get justice and embarked on a decade-long mission to bring her truth to light. In a landmark case, Jeni’s alters took the stand hoping to finally get her father, Richard Haynes, to pay for his actions.

Wait, there's more!
