Welcome to my Web site!
As the author of
Civilized Savages
and Secrets in Paradise
and most recently, The Journey,
is the outspoken voice for those who are unable to speak for
themselves. As an abuse survivor, I understand better than the average
individual the importance of raising awareness of the effects of abuse
on an individual. I speak against the most extreme forms of child
labor and ritual abuse. In my novels, I illustrates that abuse of every
type is going on not only around the world, but in our own country as
well. No child is safe while this threat exists.

The
novel is a sequel to Civilized Savages
and follows 11-year-old Joey Benson through a
nightmare of abuse, neglect, and isolation. Many
of Behm’s true-life events are detailed, and
though some of the names have been changed, the
heart of the story is still the same. “This book
is a beacon of light in the dark world of abuse.
[We need] awareness of this clear and present
danger, and incentive for those who know a
victim—and even those who don’t—to take action,
to care for someone who has been abused, or to
become an advocate against abuse in all forms.” |

is
an account of one woman's struggle to overcome the
affects of child abuse while being faced with a world
that only exists in some people's nightmares. |

is
the spellbinding view of a childhood taken to appease the
political hunger of The New Order. In this engagingly written
and compelling tome, Behm stunningly captures the turbulence of
a war enraged party with no concern of the innocent lives they
are destroying. |
