Description
Terry O'Neill's story is one of unimaginable hardship and courage. At just ten years old, he stood up in court to testify against his brutal foster parents, accused of the manslaughter of his twelve-year-old brother, Dennis.
Their case shocked a nation already united by war and struggle, and the public outcry led to significant changes in the way vulnerable children are protected from neglect and cruelty. This harrowing true story is a testament to the enduring power of hope and resilience in the face of unimaginable adversity.
Published in 2010, "Someone to Love Us" is a powerful and thought-provoking account of one boy's fight for justice and survival.
