Description

The Child Bride by Cathy Glass is a heart-wrenching true story of a young girl's desperate bid for freedom. At just 14, Zeena is forced into a life of servitude and abuse, her only hope of escape a plea to be taken in by a non-Asian family.

When Zeena is placed in the care of experienced foster carer Cathy and her family, she struggles to adjust to her new life, missing her siblings terribly. But her family's refusal to let her see them again is just the beginning of her ordeal, as she faces a father and uncle who will stop at nothing to silence her.

This shocking true story is a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit, and a powerful exploration of the complexities of family, culture and identity.
