About this listen

VOLUME 1 OF KAT WARD'S SENSATIONAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY

From the outside, there was no reason to suspect the family life of young schoolchild Keri was anything but unremarkable. Two loving parents, a backdrop of 1960’s Britain; life had provided for her, at least with the riches of modesty.

Keri herself however, would often confound teachers with her erratic behaviour, which was at best sullen and withdrawn; at worst violently disruptive. When challenged, she would only exacerbate her growing reputation as a fantasist; weaving terrible tales about the “abuse” she was suffering at the hands of her very creators.

But it was the much-celebrated age of innocence; the childhood of our modern culture. Big brother had not yet been born and Nanny was only looking out for her dearest, as opposed to the entire State. Who would take the word of child on such matters? After all, she was just a bad egg… wasn’t she?

Well, no. She wasn’t. She was indeed, for over a decade, the victim of an abuse so staggering that merely to listen about it is enough to freeze even the thickest of blood. “Keri” is the story of what happens when truth is imprisoned in a little glass jar and buried deep within the Earth, condemned to a sentence of eternal silence. For truth may be repressed, but never supressed. It will always find light eventually.

And, in this gut-wrenching account of her early life, author Kat Ward takes the listener through every shade of darkness, whilst never allowing the candle of hope to fully extinguish, so as that truth may indeed find its rightful freedom.

DISCLAIMER: This is a true story of child abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

What a life and to think that’s all you can remember it is just so heartbreaking.

Heartbreaking

What kind of parents infact what kind of woman carries a child, gives birth and ends up putting their child through complete and utter destruction.

Harrowing

First off the narration is superb, adding different accents really helps. As for the story, wow. At times it bought tears to my eyes, yet it also made me smile at times.

The reason being that I recognise so much of this story, and the excellent writing has me completely hooked. It's terrible when you think how poorly Keri was handled by all the people who had chances, even responsibility to change the awful situations she found herself in, but simply failed.

I'm currently half way through part 2.

Both heartbreaking and amazing

I still have 9hrs playing to go and it stopped working and says there is an issue with playback, but all other books play great.

Great story. Very dark
