If you tell, I'll kill you

"Removed from her biological mother at a very young age, Phyllis was shuffled around for much of her childhood. At an orphanage she suffered neglect and physical abuse, and later was sexually abused by her foster father. She finally found some love and stability with her adoptive family, but by this time her emotional scars were deep and her past continued to be a burden for her. Her troubled relationships with men led to several pregnancies at a young age and Phyllis knew she suffered from very low self-esteem. Determined to improve life for herself and her children, Phyllis started a career and took solace in her church. Aided by a loving friend, she was finally able to stare down her past and start life anew ... This is her story."--Back cover.
