SHANNON MORONEY is the author of two bestselling memoirs: Through the Glass (2011), her own story; and Out of the Shadows (2019), the story of human trafficking survivor Timea Nagy. Through the Glass chronicles Shannon's journey following the violent crimes and incarcera­tion of her first husband. Acknowledged in the top ten list of books at the World Empathy Library, it was also a Canada Reads Top 40 selection and is required reading at numerous universities. It is an impassioned, harrowing and ultimately hopeful story of one woman's pursuit of justice, forgiveness and healing. In this intimate and gripping journey into prisons, courtrooms and the human heart, Shannon reveals the far-reaching impact of Jason's crimes, the agonizing choices faced by the loved ones of offenders and the implicit dangers of a correctional system and a society that prioritizes punishment over rehabilitation, and victimhood over recovery. Out of the Shadows is a gripping, heartbreaking and eye-opening journey deep into the underworld of human trafficking and the sex trade, told in riveting detail by one brave survivor. At once tragic and powerfully redemptive, Timea Nagy’s story will stay with you long after you’ve read the last page. Shannon is also an internationally recognized advocate of restorative justice, a powerful speaker, one of the “world’s 50 most resilient people” (Global Resilience Project), a New York Times “Women in the World” recommended writer (2016) and is featured by the international Forgiveness Project. She travels extensively to lead transformative forgiveness and healing retreats for people and communities overcoming trauma. She is also the creator of #FindTheWords, cards for unique and challenging times, available at www.FindTheWordsCards.etsy.com Shannon lives in Toronto with her family.
