    This Book Will Break Your Heart
  

*by L***I on Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2016*

As you read Matt Birkbeck's stunningly powerful book A BEAUTIFUL CHILD, you will soon realize that though he is razor focused on the disturbing and gut-wrenching case of Sharon Marshall, he is writing a tome to the millions of the lost, battered, and abused children of America.His research is impeccable; his story-telling captivating. You will not be able to put this book down until you know....Within its story, Mr Birkbeck also relates the shameful history of missing children and how their absence was treated by law enforcement up and until the late 80's. I don't know how families stood for this as estimates reported close to a million children a year went missing.The story of Sharon Marshall is shocking. It has activated hundreds of thousands around the world.The good news is the advancements made by organizations dedicated to finding lost children has raced the percentages to finding the recently missing to as high as 95 per cent.Read this book. Then join the fight.

    A Horrific Human Tragedy well-written but hard to read because of the circumstances
  

*by P***C on Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2017*

I rated this book a five because of the depth and detail of the author in telling this complex, winding story.  He hooks you into the plight of poor, beautiful Sharon and the evil rained upon her by Franklin Floyd from the get go. It is a disturbing story-- absolutely heartbreaking. Birkbeck brings Sharon to life. I don't think anyone could read this story without feeling terrible pain for the suffering of Sharon and her son at the hands of a monster. Hopefully, it will also make mean-spirited, judgemental types rethink the plight of young girls forced into the sex trade businesses. We never know what others face in life when we haven't walked in their shoes. I don't think I will ever forget Sharon or Michael or the Bean family or  "Stevie" who all crossed paths with the psychopath Floyd. I wish I could forget Floyd because he doesn't deserve one iota of attention. He is the devil.  It is beyond tragic but Sharon is finally free of him.

    For True Crime readers–this is story you won't want to pass up.
  

*by S***Z on Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2019*

Birkbeck details the case in his book, A Beautiful Child, with clear and concise information, allowing the reader an intimate understanding as to how such at crime was able to manifest, and how her tormentor, Franklin Delano Floyd, could continue his reign of terror undiscovered. Absolutely chilling.It is important to note that during the time of Sharon's burial, her real identity remained a mystery, so her friends naturally put the name she went by on her headstone. Today, however, her real name is on her headstone–owed to the relentless efforts of people like Matt Birkbeck and other good people, unwilling to let Sharon’s real name and life story remain a mystery forever. Finding Sharon is the conclusion to The Beautiful Child. The second book unravels the law enforcement end of this mystery, revealing how the FBI conducted their case.While certainly a provocative and fascinating case in hindsight, it was also deeply troubling to read about this young woman’s torturous life and subsequent death. From all accounts, people who knew her said 'Sharon' was a kind and generous soul who, despite the many hardships and challenges, never stopped reaching out to help others. Even in death, her humanity defined her.For True Crime readers–this is story you won't want to pass up.
