Harbouring terrible secrets from her own youth, Janestruggles to contain the anger these stories arouse in her. It's only when shestarts counselling her colleague Kass, a survivor of childhood sexual abusewhose trauma is resurfacing, that her thoughts turn to revenge...
Moving, entertaining and revelatory, Words Fail Me not onlyshines a light on adolescent agonies, it's also a gripping page-turner with acompelling mystery at its core - and a hair-raising climax
