Now hailed as one of her home town's heroes for her contribution to community development, Yvonne grew up in the most deprived and notorious estates in Bradford. Expelled from two schools she was sent to a state institution for delinquent juveniles. Ironically, Yvonne went on to gain a University Degree in Peace Studies.

In this brutally honest and heart-wrenching account of her life, Yvonne tells about the dignity-stripping events; abuse, shame and choices that lead to her descent into the shadows of vice and crime. She was held at gun-point, attacked and kidnapped. The self destruct button had been pressed in her tender teenage heart and consequences did not come into the equation in her volatile rebellion.
