SAVAGE: A harrowing account of childhood sexual abuse and survival of adopted Indigenous twins from a sadistic house of horrors.

By Joy Macko, Jan Iverson

First published 2026

A harrowing account of childhood sexual abuse and survival of adopted Indigenous twins from a sadistic house of horrors. Told with raw vulnerability and unwavering courage, this is the true story of two survivors of unrelenting child abuse—physical, emotional, psychological, and sexual through child sex trafficking. Trapped in a daily nightmare that knew no pause for holidays, birthdays, or even illness, they endured a world where every movement, every thought, every breath was controlled. What followed was silence. Shame. The unbearable weight of trauma that lingered long after the bruises faded. But deep in that darkness, they made a vow: the cycle ends here. This searing memoir is more than a testimony—it’s a lifeline. A fierce, unflinching journey from torment to healing, from powerlessness to purpose. And in stepping out of the shadows, they offer a powerful message to every survivor: you are seen, your pain is real, and your voice matters. No more silence. No more pretending. The time to heal is now.
