Publisher's Summary
This extraordinary powerful story of Gloria’s journey from darkness into light is one of hope, resilience, and the unrelenting power of the human spirit to survive.
It’s June 1960, and in middle-class suburban New Zealand, a child was born into sex slavery. For the first 16 years of her life, Gloria suffered horrendous sexual, physical, and psychological abuse at the hands of her father, with no one to protect her. From the underworld of her father’s pedophile ring to the groups he trafficked her to, she found an inner strength and a light that shone so brightly, her mind was the one thing that could not be destroyed.
Experienced through the eyes of a child, On Angels’ Wings will forever highlight the way we deal with child abuse, shining a light on this darkness and challenging us not to assume that every child is safe. One voice speaking out is all it takes to save a life.

A journey from abuse & stolen innocence to empowerment & charity
I'm absolutely inspired by Gloria's resilience and strength to survive this and go on to help others as she does.
This is not an easy read by any stretch and at times I was left gasping and sobbing for this child as well as so many others I wish I could help.
The author's personal recount of her life experiences bring to light the very real presence of an underbelly that is irrespective of any demographic boundaries, existing historically and to this very day.
Evil lurks among us and is hiding in plain sight.

Incredibly brave and tragic
I am so sorry you went through all you did, and I am so proud of you for getting through it to where you are now. Not only do you have an elegant manner with your writing, but a poetic take on your growth through the darkness and an angel yourself x. 5 out 5 highly recommend. (here's an eternal hug from me to you.)

Gut wrenching yet inspirational..
The trauma and suffering this woman endured is absolutely incomprehensible..
To still have hope and goodness as the very seed of her existence is inspirational and admirable..I was shocked and cried several times from her account of her childhood and was filled with anger towards the caregivers and family that were supposed to protect and nurture. I hope they choke on their guilt and denial of the truth as she soars “with angel wings”

An inspirational story
I first heard of this book after listening to the Podcast ‘The clink’ where Gloria was interviewed. I wanted to know more and hear how she survived. After listening to her story I am amazed at how she has survived such a devastating childhood and how she could be so let down by her family and in particular her mother.
Considering that the system allowed her father to get away with the absolute cruelty and abuse he put her through, her story needs to be heard by as many as possible so that we can somehow hold him accountable and find some justice for Gloria.
Thank you for sharing your story and I wish you nothing but happier times that you so deserve.
