THE SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER

A heartbreaking memoir from a girl who escaped county line trafficking only to become prey to other abusers…

Emily has always felt like an outsider, so when a family friend takes her under his wing she is delighted. But soon it becomes clear that his motives are not all they seem.

At the age of 11, Emily is groomed into being a ‘county lines’ drug trafficker. It is the beginning of a vicious cycle that sees her become prey to one abuser after another, involving a huge child-sex-trafficking gang.

The scale of the abuse – at the hands of hundreds of men – is sickening, and at times it feels like there will never be an escape. But then, in the darkest of moments, a ray of light shines …

This is the moving true story of how one girl overcame her traumatic past and learned to love for the very first time.

This book just goes to show how easily a child can get caught up with the wrong people. Congratulations to Her for what she is doing now to protect other children going through what she has gone through.

Horrific story

It makes so mad theses dirty men think they can just do what ever they want and get away with it. These poor girls have so much shame that they think they can’t tell anyone. We need to teach our girls to speak up straight away and it’s not there fault. These men are pigs.

Very sad

It is hard to say what “I liked” as this book was full of sadness, it’s easier to say I “disliked” the fact this happened/happens still to this day.
Although I had nightmares I could not stop listening to her story.

Truly remarkable the courage of the Victim
