He said no one would believe me. He said he would kill me.
So I gave the truth a voice he can’t interrupt.
This isn’t fiction.
This is the witness I was never allowed to call upon.
It’s a war cry.
I’m Going to Dance in the Street When You Die is a savage, brutally honest memoir about surviving coercive control, sexual abuse, domestic violence, and the systems that let it all happen.
From childhood neglect on an East London council estate to escaping a man who made my bed a battlefield, this book exposes the truth — not just about what abusers do, but how they get away with it.
It’s the story of one woman. But it’s the reality of thousands.
Police failures. Legal gaslighting. A refuge that felt more like a warning than a safe house. I lived it. And now, I’m naming it.
This is for the women who were told they were overreacting.
For the mothers forced to hand their children over to the very men they fled from.
For the ones who stayed quiet — because silence felt safer than truth.
You’ll feel rage. You’ll recognise yourself. You’ll understand what coercion really looks like.
And if you’re not ready to dance in the street when he dies…
You might at least smile.
Raw. Relentless. Unapologetic.
