In this haunting and frank account, Donna Ford, the best-selling author of The Step Child, writes about the horrific abuse she suffered as a child at the hands of her stepmother and, to a lesser extent, her father, and also about how this abuse continued even after her stepmother left the family home when she was eleven. Donna writes not just about her own traumatic childhood, but of the ill treatment meted out to her siblings and half siblings as well. Abandoned by her real mother when she was tiny, we also learn of Donna's efforts to find the woman of whom she has only vague memories; the woman who might have made such a difference to Donna's childhood if she had stayed By telling the whole story of her Edinburgh childhood, Donna tries to understand why the man who should have loved her the most her own father betrayed her the most by allowing men to pay to abuse her and closing his eyes to all that went on. But most astonishing of all is the woman Donna has become- a devoted mother of three and a talented artist and writer. She is living testament to the power of the human spirit and sincerely hopes that, by reading her story, people will realise that they can overcomeProduct Identifiers
