About this audiobook
This is the book that should never have had to be written - let alone experienced.
Every child and human being has a fundamental right to a life free from humiliation, fear and violence. Yet the World Health Organisation estimates that up to 40 million children are abused every year and according to Women's Aid, 1 in 3 women has been beaten, coerced into sex or otherwise abused in her lifetime.
In this shocking memoir, Cassie Moore gives a very open and honest description of how she suffered and survived a lifetime of abuse. She describes:
- The sexual, physical and emotional abuse she suffered at the hands of her Stepfather and Mother, who then sold her into marriage at the age of 16
- The heartbreak she suffered when she naively left her 22-month-old baby behind when she fled to London with the man she fell in love with, only to be abused by him for a further 23 years
- The self-loathing, depression and despair she felt during those lonely years
- The enormous sacrifices she had to make to save herself and start a new life
DISCLAIMER: This book is based upon the author’s true life story, in which episodes of child abuse are prevalent. Reader discretion is advised.
