What do you do when innocence dies?

Bria is a typical little girl by all outward appearances but inside lurks dark secrets and problems only adults should have to face. She is smart but confused with the world around her. To top it off, she has no one to talk to about these problems. That is, until, Jack finds her in the basement of the family home during a funeral. Jack is Bria's best friend and the one person she will talk to. Unbeknownst to them both, that friendship will be tested and strengthened, and eventually will save a life.

Bria doesn't have a real home. After years of being shuffled between Aunts and across the border, the only family she can count on is her Aunt Mary and Jack. She takes it upon herself to protect her younger sister but, as fate would have it, she is forced into a difficult decision in her efforts to find them both a safe home with Mary and Jack. Her impossible situation turns into a nightmare as she is soon abducted and trafficked. The unspeakable acts she endures and witnesses leave her a shell of the girl she once was.

After a daring escape, Bria now faces the most difficult obstacle of all – finding her place in society again. Along her harrowing path, she confronts her inner enemies and discovers new life when it seemed her life was over. Can she truly recover? Will she learn what love really is? Will she allow herself to be more than the 'nobody, nobody wants'?

From the first word, Lynda Martin's passion for crafting a gripping story combined with her career of helping missing and exploited children takes center stage. Instantly, you are immersed in Bria's journey as she struggles to navigate a cruel world. With each passing page, it is virtually impossible not to care for Bria and the others like her in "This Bird Flew Away." You will find yourself wanting to hug, talk and listen to Bria as the connection is made on multiple levels.

"This Bird Flew Away" is a story of betrayal, abuse, hope, love and strength. The emotions experienced as the story unfolds carry it from page to page. Sadness, anger, grief, hopelessness, joy, love, hope and peace are all present and combine to deliver a surreal experience; one that will haunt and demand that you ponder on the reality that the story depicts. This book is a must have for those seeking an emotionally charged story of survival.

Author Lynda Martin's debut novel, is sure to take the world by storm. I see a bright future for this up and coming author.
