Peter Saunders was raised in a devout Catholic family in London, an upbringing fraught with oppression and abuse. Unable to find support in adulthood, Peter set up a major national charity for adults abused in childhood. He battled with the Church for many years over its persistent denials and cover-ups regarding abuse throughout its ranks across the globe.
Peter made no secret of his views and was astonished to receive an invite to meet Pope Francis at the Vatican in July 2014. The meeting was amicable, and Peter was asked to join the Pope's child protection commission, but it led to some bizarre and challenging consequences. Meetings with high-ranking government ministers, officers of the United Nations, senior clerics, and a constant media platform gave Peter a strong voice. This was not welcomed by everyone and he inevitably came up against powerful, sinister forces.
Peter's pleadings for greater child protection measures around the world led to those menacing forces coming together in an attempt to silence him. Although hounded out of the organisation he founded Peter refuses to be quiet. He now tells his story in this memoir.
