‘Each time my mother laid a finger on me… it was another step into the jaws of hell. Her abuse, more so than any other, destroyed me. It was the ultimate betrayal.’
‘Each time my mother laid a finger on me… it was another step into the jaws of hell. Her abuse, more so than any other, destroyed me. It was the ultimate betrayal.’
Abused from the age of eight by her older brother and then her step-father, Maureen Wood quickly became numb to the constant suffering. But Maureen’s world crumbled when her own mother started to abuse her too…
A Family Secret is the harrowing true story of how one little girl survived sickening abuse by the people who should have loved her most, and how an innocent baby finally saved her.
Maureen Wood lives in the north of England with her beautiful children. She hopes her story will allow for other victims of abuse to feel less alone and make peace with their past, as this book did for her.
• A harrowing but uplifting story of surviving that will appeal to readers of Cathy Glass and books like How Could She? (97k tcm), Secret Slave (94.5k tcm), Daddy’s Little Secret (57k) and Love as Always, Mum (28.5k tcm).
• Maureen is fully identified and committed to publicity in a bid to encourage others to come forward with her message that it’s never too late
• Maureen is working two highly respected journalist Joe and Ann Cusack who are well-connected across the media.
• The court case was reported on but this will be the first time Maureen has told her story in full
