Four in the Morning: Large Print Edition (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780796134240)

She never expected things to end the way they did.

To the outside world, Claudia Stevenson is living the dream. The perfect home, a beautiful family and a successful career all hide the nightmare that is going on behind closed doors. Trapped in an emotionally turbulent, verbally abusive marriage, Claudia yearns to escape.

When Alex reappears in her life after seventeen years, Claudia is faced with a choice: does she run while she can, or does she stay? Her decision leads her on a dangerous path where, in a tragic twist of circumstances, she finds herself watching her life spiral out of control.

Based on actual events (fictionalised to protect identities), Four in the Morning is a story of love, tragedy, forgiveness and redemption. It is a powerful personal documentation of unshared truths, dedicated to a family whose lives were left shattered in the aftermath of events that might never be fully understood.
