When the news broke that her missing sister Lucy had been murdered, Marian Partington had one of two choices to make. She could let the grief and rage she felt overwhelm her, or she could try to turn her trauma into something good. This moving memoir details Marian's fierce engagement with her loss and refusal to become its victim.
In 1994, 21 years after her disappearance, Lucy Partington''s remains were discovered in Fred and Rosemary West''s basement at 25 Cromwell Street, Gloucester. In this powerful and lyrical book, Lucy''s elder sister, Marian, reclaims Lucy from the status of victim and finds an authentic and compassionate response to her traumatic loss. Her inspiring narrative of healing draws on Buddhist and Quaker practices and culminates in restorative justice work in prisons.
