While domestic abuse does not discriminate by gender,
ethnicity, or age group, it is true that 95 percent of
its victims are women. The bruises, scars, and emotional
wounds will affect one in every three women in the U.S.
yet countless women return, again and again, to their
abusers. They are trapped in the revolving door of abuse.
For those who are able to escape, the choices are grim:
poverty, homelessness, and health problems await many
women and their children.
In this revealing and candid book, you will meet
courageous women who broke away from abusive
relationships to escape the agonizing pain and find
lasting peace.
