‘Annie’s Boy’ is a coming-of-age story as seen through the eyes of a boy and his mum living in Scotland in the 1970’s and 80’s where fear, violence and struggle was an everyday part of life.

It is a story of hope and quiet courage and perseverance that will take you on an emotional roller coaster that spans over fifteen years of their lives and what they did to survive.

Gary and his mother lived in fear at the intimidation and violence that came from his father. At the age of ten, he agreed to testify against his father in court to try and stop the ordeal from continuing.

The book is also a look at the tough and gritty life of Dundee during the period.

‘Annie’s Boy’ will seize the heart of every listener.

I really enjoyed Annie's Boy, Gary Todd tells a powerful and honest description of growing up in difficult circumstances. What stood out most was the resilience and determination shown throughout his childhood despite the hardships he faced. The description of his life were vivid and brought the story to life. It was both emotional and inspiring, and I found myself completely absorbed from start to finish. A heartfelt memoir.
