Shadow Street is a blistering account of one woman's struggle to gain independence and to escape from an abusive relationship. Grim but compelling, it draws the reader in and keeps them reading despite a growing concern for the protagonist. This powerful personal story of appalling experiences needs to be read by anyone finding themselves in a similar situation - it is both a cautionary tale and a proof that there can be light at the end of a very dark tunnel. Pulling no punches, it is often a painful read but it is also a message that hope may ultimately triumph over despair. - Barbara Scott Emmett, Writer and Editor
