Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

When Delia Balmer entered into a relationship with the attentive John Sweeney, she had no idea he was a serial killer.

At first he was caring but over the course of their relationship he became violent and controlling. On more than one occasion he held Delia hostage and tortured her. Chillingly, he also confessed to the murder of his previous girlfriend. After one serious assault, Sweeney was released on bail, and left her in the utmost fear knowing that he would return to finish her off. After a final frenzied attack leaving Delia on the brink of death, Sweeney went on the run. Astonishingly, it would take the police six years to capture and convict Sweeney of multiple murders.

This is her compelling memoir.

wow

Delia, what an inspiration you are! I am so sorry you went though (and are still going through) what you did. A fantastically writing memoir.

Wow

Oh wow, so many failings by the police, nothing has changed with them.
I was shouting at loud most parts of this story, having been through domestic violence and been left with a host of mental health issues it’s heart wrenching listening to others, back in the 90’s unless you were half alive the police did not want to know, I applaud this lady, her bravery should spurn women on.
Ladies 1 red flag is your indicator to run and not turn back, you are so much better than being someone’s punchbag, run and do it for you xx
