Shattering the Silence (Judgement Day: Ellie Nesler Story Bonus)

United in a strong, loving marriage, Veronica Ricci (Joanna Kerns, Growing Pains) and her husband Ted (Michael Brandon, Dempsey & Makepeace) feel their world is complete with the arrival of their first child. But their joy is short-lived. A chance remark by Veronica’s father, Malcolm, triggers off a horrific suppressed memory from Veronica’s childhood. Her mind filled with disturbed but confusing images, Veronica begins to disintegrate mentally. Fearing her memories may be delusions, she turns to her estranged sister, Becky (Shelley Hack, the original TV version of Charlie’s Angels), who reveals a terrible secret from her own past: that when she was a little girl, their father sexually abused her. But challenging Malcolm Worth is no easy task: he is a successful businessman and a respected pillar of the community, married to Clair, a poised and perfect wife. With their marriage near breaking point, Ted persuades Veronica to see Walter, a therapist, who probes Veronica’s childhood and uncovers further – and much more personal – evidence of her father’s vile actions. And is history about to repeat itself? Is Malcolm homing in on his next victim: Christy, the daughter of Veronica’s brother, Tom? And might Veronica and Ted’s own child be at risk from her predatory grandfather?
