What if the very people meant to protect you were the ones who hurt you most?Mary Long's childhood was a battlefield of fear, abandonment, and abuse-scars no child should bear, inflicted by the very people meant to protect her. Told to stay quiet. Taught to
survive. Left to raise herself in the shadows of other people's choices. Yet even in her darkest moments, Mary sensed the quiet pull of a presence greater than her pain.
I Held Hands with the Devil is a raw and redemptive memoir that traces Mary's journey from a terrified little girl no one protected to a woman unafraid to tell the truth. Through pain,
therapy, faith, and radical courage, she found her voice and learned to let God's healing love reach every shattered place within her.
This powerful testimony to God's relentless grace is more than a story of survival-it is a reminder that healing is always possible, no matter where you've been. For anyone who has ever wondered if redemption is within reach, I Held Hands with the Devil offers your answer.
