How do you survive one of the worst cases of domestic abuse?
"That is when I knew that I was f***ed. I thought I was going to die. That night I remember telling him to just kill me. He said `I will either give you bleach or you can put a bag over your head'. I remember really weighing up these options because I just wanted to die."
This is the hard-hitting but incredibly moving memoir from Charlotte Rooks, a woman who eventually found the inner strength to leave her partner, refuse to die by his hands and survivor of one of Britain's worst cases of domestic violence.
