Nowhere to Go : The heartbreaking true story of a boy desperate to be loved

Bestselling author and foster carer Casey Watson shares the shocking true story of Tyler, an abused eleven-year-old who, after stabbing his step-mother, had nowhere else to go.

It isn’t easy; Tyler continuously lashes out, even trying to attack Casey herself. Investigation into his earlier childhood reveals why: forced to watch his mother die he was found emaciated and traumatised two days later, then delivered to a father who didn’t want him and a step-mother who beat him.

With the horrific events of his past now vividly affecting the course of his present, Casey and her husband Mike are determined to veer him away from the violence and drugs they fear he will come to depend on.

Heartbreaking and profoundly moving, Nowhere to Go tells the story of a child forsaken by his family but fought for by his foster carers.

Avskyvärt uppläst, fick ge upp tillslut. Uppläsaren skriker, mumlar och viskar om vartannat så man hela tiden måste reglera volymen för att höra vad hon säger men inte få hörselskador. Jag har dessutom väldigt svårt att förstå valet att läsa den yngre sonen med asd på det sätt som görs, hon låter som en väldigt fördomsfull karikatyr av individer med funktionsvarieringar

Uppläsaren är otroligt skrikig, volymen ändras hela tiden vilket fick mig att hoppa högt flera gånger. Lycka till med att ha en avslappnande ljudboksstund 🥴
