'Something is wrong. I know it the moment I see Mum at school pickup.'For sixteen-year-old Isabel, life was defined by the steady presence of her father-a man who helped with homework, played golf on Saturdays, and sat every morning at the family’s breakfast bar. But in a single afternoon, that world is tilted off its axis. Her father is charged with the unthinkable: the indecent assault of the little girl next door.The Other Victims is a searingly honest exploration of the collateral damage of abuse. Moving through the decades following the initial arrest, the story is told through a kaleidoscope of voices: the daughter struggling to reconcile the man she loved with the 'monster' he became; the wife caught between loyalty and the shattering of her marriage; and the neighbors left to wonder how such darkness could live behind a familiar fence.From the imposing bluestone walls of Pentridge Prison to the quiet, agonizing isolation of a nursing home, Isabel Wright traces the ripples of a single person’s actions as they tear through a family and a community. This is not a story of a single crime, but of the long, slow process of surviving its aftermath. It is a testament to the fact that when a life is built on a lie, the truth doesn’t just hurt-it changes everything.
