Leaving in the Republic of Ireland, I created a story which involves the Magdalene Laundries, which existed in Northern and in the Republic of Ireland. I set the story in the year 1996, so no cell phone etc. existed, as we know it today. It is hardly mentioned what happened at the crime scene, ore what stood in the diary. All persons are fictional, so made up by myself. I do not know, if a similar case once happened, but I think it did not, so also that crime is made up.

What is not fictunal is, that the last Laundry did close in 1996 in Dublin. Also some other things which are mentioned, like, when another Laundry was closed, or how they could find some mass graves can be read at the internet, although I did not go too much into details, so it does not get too terrible for reading it. Yes it is a sad ending, but I also tried there to be as positive as possible. I have no clue, what I am allowed to write in todays world, but I tried to write so nice as I could. To be honest, every real news, for all when war is involved are more cruel, than what I wrote, still you will realise it is a crime story. I know, that normally you write a summery of the story, but I wanted to make clear, that this is not a true story, that only some places existed in reality, but none of the persons mentioned or the story itself happened in that way. The one or other thing I have from news-article of BBC and Co.

Mama is gone.

You do not know anyone. Not more than they want you to know them. You don't know what happens behind closed doors, whilst not a soul is watching. You don't know, and maybe you never will.

Elaine experienced an horrendous childhood, filled with physical, sexual and mental abuse. As an adult she lives in fear of her life falling apart; reality becomes blurred as she fails to repress and bury her trauma. She cannot come to terms with the horrors that her own mother had inflicted upon her. She doesn't believe that her life could ever actually, be a happy one.

A story filled with grief and sorrow but a twist that will warm your heart.
