THE SHOCKING TRUE STORY BEHIND THE HIT TV DRAMA THREE GIRLS

When detective Maggie Oliver first discovered that children as young as 10 were being groomed, abused and trafficked for sex by gangs of men in the Rochdale area, she felt like a lonely voice calling for people to act.

Banging on closed doors, it seemed that nobody was able or willing to help her save these vulnerable girls, but she couldn't just sit back while countless lives were being destroyed forever in plain sight. Instead, she launched a one-woman campaign to bring down these sickening gangs.

This is the heart-breaking and shocking story of how the actions of one determined detective secured convictions in what is now one of the most notorious grooming cases in the UK. Along the way Maggie discovered countless examples of how the authorities were letting down our most vulnerable children. She blew the whistle, losing her job and at times her mind at times, in a bid to stop others from experiencing the same.

This is the first ever account from a police insider on the endemic problem of child sexual exploitation across the nation and how these cases are handled by the authorities put in place to protect us.

It tells the story of a woman brave enough to speak out and a group of girls who found the strength to fight for justice after having their lives completely shattered by their abusers; together they show in shocking detail why this must never happen again.

If, like me, you bought this to learn more about the Rochdale child abuse scandal...you'll be disappointed. The first 2-3 hours are this woman chronicling her entire life and early marriage. Fine, OK. A proportion of the book is spent on the author's experience with the police and the child abuse scandal but the vast majority is the author's personal life. I was still begrudgingly along for the ride until she starting justifying going on Big Brother UK as "an opportunity to talk about the victims" and she veers into self-serving publicity. This books needs an editor, stat.

Not truly an expose on the Rochdale scandal
