‘If Judy’s story doesn’t become a book and a film, I’ll be amazed.’ John Peel
Nowhere to Run
Where do you go when there’s nowhere left to hide?
Description
Just when Judy thought the nightmare was over her past came back to haunt her.
Judy was only 11 years old when she was forced to live on the streets. Beaten, half-starved and horrifically abused, she finally escaped to a life in the circus. But the charming man who said he loved her had a dark and sinister side. If she wanted to survive she had to get away.
Judy fled to South Africa, taking with her her two young children. But the streets of South Africa were just as cruel. One day they took her daughter and her past was replayed in front of her eyes.
Judy's incredible story of courage and determination will inspire as it will amaze.
