The Boy Cillian and other Lives

By John Quarmby

Essentially biographical, the book recounts my experiences in dealing with the effects of child sexual abuse, both personally (as a parent) and with other people involved directly or indirectly in the nightmare. I am not a professional in that I am not a psychiatrist, lawyer or social worker and do not attempt to deal with the technical aspect of processing these survivors. At the same time there are specific international/Interpol determined protocols for processing abused persons and I hope I can offer the reader some insights into these universal protocols and their application. The defamatory nature of the original manuscript, one literary agent described what I have written as "...so awful it was giving me nightmares..." and returned the manuscript, has necessitated anonymity. So that a lot of the 'characterisation' normally associated with such manuscripts has had to be removed leaving an even starker, more brutal, narrative that I hope will reveal to those un associated with abuse the truly brutal nature of pedophilia.
