Child abuse is a pervasive problem with debilitating effects on the victim. According to childhelp.org, a child abuse report is made every 10 seconds in the United States alone. In her new book, "Nobody's Child" (published by Xlibris), child abuse survivor Alma Corliss takes readers beyond statistics and offers a harrowing glimpse into what victims go through. She lends her voice to victims everywhere while giving hope to anyone enduring challenging circumstances.

Corliss grew up in a third world country and was exposed to the harsh realities of life at an early age. She found herself constantly searching for a place of belongingness and running away from the very people who were supposed to protect her. Her turbulent upbringing landed her in many dangerous situations. In "Nobody's Child," Corliss looks back to her journey to find hope and healing. It is the firsthand account of an abuse survivor and her unrelenting struggle to find peace.

"My book is about growth, strength and the courage to be someone regardless of my past," the author says.

"Nobody's Child" is a gripping story of one woman who dared to find her voice in an often dark and cruel world and the unwavering spirit that let her prevail over her circumstances.
