Amy Norman was a normal middle-class Australian schoolgirl, who dreamed of being a ballet dancer. But, at the age of sixteen, she fell in with the wrong crowd. She dropped out of school and left her loving family for Dean, a man whose life was dominated by his addition to drugs.
Within three years she had had two children to him and had several traumatic abortions. She had become hooked on drugs herself and she was being beaten up every single day.
Amy desperately tried to escape Dean and return to her family. But each time she was forced to return to him after he threatened to kill her, her children and her parents. Finally, after years of living in fear, Amy took the children and spent a few years traveling around Australia, changing her identity frequently to avoid being found.
