She remembered: 'One day, a little boy in the playground told me that he loved me and said: 'I'll always come to find you, even if you go to Africa. It is a heart breaking story of how a little girl Marie, in August 1959 ends up in a Convent, I would say the Convent of horror. I bought this book because I was educated at a Catholic Primary School run by nuns who used canes liberally, followed at age eleven by a Catholic Grammar School also run by nuns in the forties.
Marie tells the story of how she was taken away from a poor, but happy and loving home life, to live in a convent - away from everyone and everything she holds dear. Her hair was bluntly chopped, her clothes were taken away and her name was changed, although she was so seldom spoken to with civility there were times that she forgot she even had a name.Es ist nicht zu fassen was den Kindern angetan wurde, wohl nicht das einzige Heim der Welt aber trotzdem.

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLERWhen a fancy car pulls up outside six-year-old Marie's home in Oldham, in 1959, she is told she is going on holiday.

O'Brien was previously named as a suspect by police, who say other complaints were made against her, but she died before she could face justice. Marie will forever not see that Christine was the favourite she did have Marie's place in the family, the one her parents did bond with and did not send away, and that she, well, she wasn't loved quite so much.The devastating crimes of a nun who beat and sexually abused little girls and encouraged older children to do the same have been laid bare in a new book. Remembering the physical beatings she endured, she continued: 'Each time I spoke up for myself, at the convent, I was beaten. The Masked Singer UK's Lorraine Kelly, 64, delighted judges guessed she was 'a wee lassie': 'I need to ring Frankie Bridge to apologise!
