Jean Borthwick and her brother should have enjoyed a happy
childhood, growing up in a village in rural post-war Scotland.
Their father was a brilliant and talented schoolteacher who was
invariably charming to all who knew him, but at home, behind closed
doors, he turned into a tyrannical monster. He would beat both his
children mercilessly with a slipper or a belt for the smallest
offence, from talking after lights out to looking at him in a funny
way. Somehow both Jean and her brother survived their years of
terror and torture to become happy and successful adults, but the
shadow of those years will never go away. This is Jean's moving
account of a childhood haunted by fear.
