In the light of recent child abuse scandals in the UK, it seems pertinent that this book should receive a higher profile. As a victim of child sexual abuse the author went on to become an offender, though he expressly accepts full responsibility for his own actions. This led to him making several attempts to end his life but then he discovered a merciful forgiving God. Society in general has no stomach for rehabilitating sex offenders. Unlike the burglar, who may steal through lack of funds, the root desires behind a Paedophile's offences will never change. It is as much a part of their persona as the colour of their eyes. Included is a chapter on how to advise your children to stay safe; the reality is, itÕs not always a case of ÔStranger DangerÕ but it is always one of a ÔSpace invaderÕ. If it takes a thief to catch a thief, perhaps the public will accept that it takes a thoroughly repentant sex offender to best explain why Paedophiles commit such abhorrent acts and how to prevent them.
