lifting the lid on my living hell.
this is the true story of the authors own tragic childhood. all the horrors of a nighmare upbringing almost too terrible to tell, memories almost too dreadful to recall, written here with all the grim and gritty details by the author herself. memories so horrific in fact, it took an immensely courageous and painful nine years to write.
why did her mother hate her so much?
why did her uncle show his love to her in that way?
she was left certain of one thing.
only a mother can destroy every ounce of hope in you.
the family was held in high esteem by the local community; the father a councillor and magistrate, the mother with two young children, a respectable housewife. but once the front door closed behind them, the physical and mental abuse began in ernest.
to escape the beatings and worse, the children visited their aunt and uncle, playing games and having treats, that came with strings attatched. all too soon they came under the evil spell of uncle kevin and his 'secrets'.
