Plot

"Click Click tells the story of three sisters born in a family of ten in Ballyfermot Dublin in the 1960s. Abused by their father from a very young age, the sisters took a successful case against their father in 1990, in a time where sexual abuse cases were still a silent shadow in this country - covered up and swept under the carpet. Click Click is the story of their abuse; the exposure and imprisonment of a man prolific in his paedophilia; and three childhoods lost in a dysfunctional, abusive and torturous environment. It is however, also the story of three women's healing - their coming to terms with their abuse, their forgiveness of themselves and others, and their determination not to let the abuse define them. Through talk, openness and understanding the sisters have triumphed over their past and have begun to heal. With humour, insight, and honest, they share the growth of this incredible connection and the conviction that with love and determination, you can indeed conquer all"--Back cover.
