Publisher Description
It was the case that shocked the nation.
On the evening of 20 April 2011, Tina Nash's life changed forever. After suffering months of beatings and domestic abuse at the hands of boyfriend Shane Jenkin, she was subjected to a barbaric and prolonged attack during which Jenkin beat her unconscious and gouged out both her eyes. When he was jailed in May 2012, people struggled to comprehend the scale of the violence endured by this attractive mother of two at her home in Cornwall.
In Out of the Darkness, Tina tells her full story - of what life with a violent partner is really like and how she survived 12 hours of sustained and unimaginable violence in her own home. Learning to adjust to life without her sight, Tina speaks bravely about how her children have given her the courage to keep going, and how - step by careful step - she is learning to live again. With statistics on domestic violence rising, Tina's incredible memoir of survival makes for essential reading.

Overcoming the obstacles!
The book takes you on a real journey of the emotional attachment Tina has on Shane even though he has destroyed every bit of her self esteem and d her normal life , I feel it definitely shows how hard it truly is for these women to get out of these relationships and move on feeling confident, it will definitely make you feel angry as to why she goes back so many times, but eventually grows back to the Tina she knew only stronger m
