 Kate McCann says: "The decision to publish the book has been very difficult, and taken with heavy hearts... My reason for writing it is simple: to give an account of the truth... Writing this memoir has entailed recording some very personal , intimate and emotional aspects of our lives.  Sharing these with strangers does not come easily to me, but if I hadn't done so I would not have felt the book gave as full a picture as it is possible for me to give.  As with every action we have taken over the last four years, it ultimately boils down to whether what we are doing could help us to find Madeleine.  When the answer to that question is yes, or even possibly, our family can cope with anything... othing is more important to us than finding our little girl."

Gerry McCann says: "It is a sad fact that not a single police force anywhere is proactively looking for Madeleine (as is the case for many other missing children). I am sure this book will re-energize the search for our daughter and the public will get behind the Find Madeleine campaign once again.  It is simply not acceptable that the authorities have given up on Madeleine - especially when no comprehensive review of the case has been undertaken.  Our daughter, and whoever took her, are out there.  We need your help to find them."

Such a sad story. Includes 16 pages of colour photos including Artist's impressions of the man and child seen on the evening of 3 May 2007 around the time Madeleine was abducted  in Praia da Luz, Portugal.

Kate and Gerry McCann established Madeleine's Fund: Leaving No Stone Unturned in 2007, to enable them to continue the search for their daughter.  

As there is now no law-enforcement agency in the world actively looking for Madeleine, the fund enables a small team of very committed and experienced  people to investigate Madeleine's disappearance.  It also runs awareness campaigns in several countries, to ensure the public know that Madeleine is still missing, and to encourage them to remain vigilant.  There is no evidence to suggest that Madeleine has been harmed and it is therefore vital to keep looking for her and those who took her.  It is for this reason that all royalties earned from the sales of 'Madeline' will be donated to Madeleine's Fund.
