What do you do when the person you're meant to trust the most in the world is the one trying to destroy you?
'When people met her they thought how lovely she was, this attractive woman with a beautiful laugh. But she was one person in public and another behind closed doors. Who would she be today? The loving mother? The trusted teacher? The monster destroying my life?'
Olivia has been afraid ever since she can remember. Out of sight, she was subjected to cruelty and humiliation at the hands of the one person who should have loved and protected her at all times - her mother, Josephine.
While appearing completely normal to the outside world, Josephine displayed all the signs of being a psychopath - unbeknown to her daughter until adulthood - and Olivia grew up feeling scared, worthless and exploited. Even when she found the courage to cut ties, her mother found new ways to manipulate and deceive, attempting to destroy her life with a vicious campaign of abuse.
