It’s an anthology written by victim turned Queen’s Award winner Naz Knight and it’s aimed at inspiring self-improvement and motivation in the reader.

Luton-born Naz sees the book more as a journey of self-discovery rather than a survivor’s story and says she refuses to be defined by her own experience of domestic abuse.

She founded AVS (Abuse Victim Support) and started a social enterprise in 2001 which became award-winning Nine Red Presents.

The group runs community projects providing various skills as well as counselling.
