Christina Lamb has reported on wars for over thirty years. This harrowing account of sexual war crimes and the suffering of women gives voice to the heroic stories of women seeking justice. Bearing witness does not guarantee it won’t happen again, but it can take away any excuse that the world simply didn’t know.
