This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
She survived the unimaginable. But survival was only the beginning.
In 2005, the nation watched as eight-year-old Shasta Groene was rescued from one of the most disturbing true crime cases in America. From Idaho news to national headlines, her story became a symbol of survival in the midst of horror. Many believed the nightmare was over.
It wasn't.
Behind the cameras was a child who had lost her family, her home, and any sense of safety. The years that followed were a different kind of trial—one fought against a justice system that promised protection but delivered abandonment, retraumatization, and betrayal.
In Out of the Dark, Brian C. Wells takes readers deep inside the aftermath of one of America's most infamous child abduction survivor stories. Through detailed research, court records, and survivor accounts, this gripping survival memoir reveals the fight for stability, justice, and dignity long after the rescue.
Inside you'll discover:
This is not only the story of Shasta Groene—it's about every survivor forced to navigate life after rescue, when the headlines fade and the real fight begins.
If you read true crime, survival stories, or kidnapping survivor memoirs, this book will change how you see the system forever. Turn the page and discover what really happens after rescue.
