The Sunday Times top ten bestseller... 'Nobody knew what was going
on behind those doors. We were human toys. Just a piece of meat for
someone to play with.' Barbara O'Hare was just 12 when she was
admitted to the psychiatric hospital, Aston Hall, in 1971. From a
troubled home, she'd hoped she would find sanctuary there. But
within hours, Barbara was tied down, drugged with sodium amytal - a
truth-telling drug - and then abused by its head physician, Dr
Kenneth Milner. The terrifying drug experimentation and relentless
abuse that lasted throughout her stay damaged her for life. But
somehow, Barbara clung on to her inner strength and eventually
found herself leading a campaign to demand answers for potentially
hundreds of victims. A shocking account of how vulnerable children
were preyed upon by the doctor entrusted with their care, and why
it must never happen again.

It's a great simple read.
It starts of very sad as the author takes us on a journey through her childhood that is filled with abuse and neglect,she ends up in mental institution where she is drugged and abused.
The really sad part of the book is the treatment she gets from her father.
But this book did not meet my expectations at all, not quiet as chilling as I thought it would be, it's merely just a book that evokes sadness and questions how can adults be so cruel to children.
It's just Ok.
