About this ebook
'Over and over again he warned me he’d kill me if I told anyone. I was completely isolated.
He made sure of that.’
Mary was a shy ten-year-old when her new dad, Sean, came into her life. From the very beginning he seemed to pay her special attention - praise for good behaviour, compliments about her clothes, help with school work. Mary trusted him. Then he started touching her. When she was twelve, he raped her.
Sean continued to abuse Mary for twenty years and fathered five of her children. But then, finally, after years of abuse, Mary found the courage to escape him for good – and reclaim her life.
Nobody Will Believe You is Mary’s personal and very brave story.
He made sure of that.’

A harrowing true story which at times had me sobbing for the little girl and the woman she was to become. A very courageous woman by anyone's standards. I hope her and her family have found true peace and that the love they share will envelope them for the rest of their lives.

Sheerly overwhelmed by the amount this strong woman had been through, I'm so glad I read your book and I'm glad I can stand with you when you tell your story. God bless you, your children and all who have stood by you. You are an angel to forgive all you have and to be able to heal in to such a brave and fearless woman x

Disturbing.....that this poor child was put through this for so long. Inspiring......that Mary is such a success and has come out the other side. Absolutely astounded that not one person questioned anything that was happening in this poor woman's life. Brilliant read.
