This biography is extremely well written.   Sandra Pankhurst endured a traumatic and abusive childhood.   She had an extraordinary life, as a transgender woman who survived many dangerous and heartbreakin  situations. She treats the clients of her trauma cleaning business with empathy and compassion.

I started reading this thinking it would be about the trauma cleaning but it is almost entirely the biography of Sandra who owns a trauma cleaning business with only a few stories of the cleaning interspersed between her life story.

Please read the trigger warnings before diving in to this.

Wow! What a story! Sandra Parkhurst is honestly one incredible woman; reading Sarah’s story of her was heartbreaking and hopeful all at once and I could not stop reading. I felt as though I could only imagine the trauma and the hurt that Sandra had been through, and yet these were things you could almost forget when she was at work helping others to ‘clean up their lives’. It was fascinating getting a peek into what ‘cleaning up trauma scenes’ actually meant and how this was executed. It also really surprised me that it was hardly the police/other figures of authority that did any of that! 😳 This book doesn’t come with an ‘ending’ per se, but I felt like everything I wanted to know was addressed and that it made me feel tearful, angry and happy all at once 😂 A true rollercoaster of emotions comes into play whilst reading this book. I would highly recommend it to anyone ❤️ I might even come back to read/skim it again (and I don’t feel the need to do that with many books). Thank you!
