The Girl Who Was There: Surviving Childhood Torture, Reclaiming Womanhood and Learning How to Live

A true story of trafficking, ritual abuse, and the woman who made it out.

What if the worst parts of your life weren't just forgotten - but carried by other versions of you?

At three years old, Georgia Alison Snow was handed to a network of men.

What followed was years of ritual abuse, trafficking, and betrayal so deep it shattered her mind into thirty-one separate parts - each one carrying pain too heavy for her to bear alone.

This is the story of what happened when they came back.

As the walls between parts began to collapse, so did the silence. One by one, each girl returned with memories, flashbacks, sensations, and truths that could no longer be buried.

Together, they began the unimaginable process of integration - learning to face the past, reclaim the present, and finally build a future.

Told with raw honesty, clarity, and deep compassion, The Girl Who Was There is not a story of victimhood. It's a story of reclamation. Of witnessing. Of the fierce, relentless love required to bring yourself home.

Survivors - For the ones who've carried the weight in silence. For those who've been told "it wasn't that bad" or "you're remembering it wrong." This book is a mirror and a megaphone - so you can finally see yourself clearly and know, without question: You are not crazy, You are not alone, And it was real.

Therapists - If you work with trauma-especially complex, dissociative, or ritual abuse survivors-you need this in your hands. Not as a case study. As a living, breathing voice behind the diagnoses and dissociation. This book will show you what it feels like on the inside, so you can stop guessing and start truly understanding.

Friends & Partners - You love someone who's survived the unthinkable, but you don't always know how to show up. Maybe you're afraid of saying the wrong thing. Maybe you don't understand what's happening behind the silence, the shutdowns, the panic. This book will take you there. Gently, truthfully, and with just enough light to help you walk beside them, not ahead or behind.
