The Fifth Well

SofC-a's story impressed the Author to the point that the Author believed that it was her duty to bring all the facts of SofC-a's intense suffering into the open and make the world aware of the furtive manner innocent children are tormented both physically and psychologically by heartless individuals who become a part of the children's families especially after the death of one of the parents. This wantonly behavior is carried out in the most absolute secrecy. No one suspects what is happening in the privacy of apparently normal households. The victims are too intimidated to talk and are certain that keeping quiet is their only chance to survive. What the author considered morally revolting was the impunity with which these evil individuals operate under the shield of the highest standards of good behavior. The bullet that liberated SofC-a was her only break in a chain of events that almost led to her total annihilation.
