"What if this time tomorrow, I could be free?"That was the question that 15-year-old Emily asked herself as she gazed up at the ceiling of the darkened room in which she had been held captive for the past 10 years.Of course, the very same question had arisen in her many times before, but never with quite the same sense that there might be a genuine possibility of escape.Subjected to a relentless campaign of violent sexual abuse at the hands of her wicked stepfather, she knew of no other life than that of her depraved servitude.But here, in this remarkable book, she tells the story of those fateful hours between midnight and morning. Of how it all came to be - and how it all, finally, came to an end…WARNING: This book is based upon a true story of child abuse, and as such contains passages that some readers may find disturbing.
