Book Overview
In 1992, at just nine-years-old, Katie Beers was kidnapped by a family friend and locked in a box underground for 17 days. Now, she has come forward to tell the story that created a national media storm as reporters uncovered the truth about her pre-kidnapping life of neglect and sexual abuse and the details of her rescue. After the death of her kidnapper, John Esposito, Katie is ready to reveal her inspiring healing process and how this horrifying experience has affected her life. Buried Memories is the only source that covers in complete detail Katie's traumatic childhood, the transcriptions of Esposito's recordings, and Katie's first-hand account of how she felt after her kidnapper's death. Despite the horrible reality of Katie's days of being chained in darkness, the kidnapping was, in fact, the climactic end of a tragic childhood and the beginning of a new life.

I couldn’t put it down
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 6 years ago
I thought it was very well written and I wanted to hear her story and how she survived such an ordeal. This was a very sad case and failed this child on so many levels but to come out a survivor and thriving and living a happy life is the best karma
Confusing for people who are just getting into true crime books.

This book is so complex it is ridiculous. Each chapter goes back and forth between Katie and the news reporter covering her story. So one minute we hear from Katie then it's right back to the media's side of the story. I saw Katie on Dr. Phil so i thought i would purchase her book and i am very disappointed with how it is written. Unless you like bouncing back and forth i do not suggest this book.
