Summary

Born in a priviledged family in India, the author came to England in 1979 to be married to a man she hardly knew. The next 10 years were to be a nightmare, on a daily basis of physical, mental and sexual abuse. This book is her story, and how a group of women got together to petition against the sentence, and ultimately succeeded in helping her.
