February 1993

Two boys with evil intent. One innocent toddler. Wrong place, wrong time. Murder the result. How can light come from such darkness?

The day Helen called the BBC to contact a group of mothers outraged over the murder of James Bulger, she was catapulted into an alien world of media, politics, and royalty. From her dining table, she created a charity to rescue the little ones, but in the process lost herself. Marriage falling apart, health collapsing, suicidal, she clung onto the teachings of Louise Hay like a lifeline.
