The book uncovers a previously overlooked group affected by the Catholic Church's child sex abuse scandals: non-offending priests. Through interviews with fellow clergy, Revd Dr Barry O'Sullivan, a serving priest and counselor, reveals the significant psychological impact these scandals have had on priests, who are often seen as secondary victims. This study, initially part of his doctoral research, highlights the broader implications for professionals in various fields facing similar crises, emphasizing the need for recognition and support for these individuals.
