My Parents Held Me Captive At Sea For 10 Years
Manage episode 441255052 series 2342957
You can hear the second half of Mia's conversation with Suzanne here.
When Suzanne Heywood and her little brother were told by their parents that they’d be leaving the UK, leaving school, leaving their friends and their dog to go and sail around the world for three years…Suzanne had her doubts - but like so many little girls, she trusted her father - he was her hero.
But as you’ll hear in this captivating story, there is a fine line between adventure and survival. Between an extended family holiday and being held captive…by your parents.
What was supposed to be a three year journey turned into a ten year odyssey where Suzanne was severely injured, put in very unsafe environments as a teenage girl, and ultimately abandoned.
This story is kind of like a Greek Myth or an Action-Adventure complete with shipwrecks and desert islands…but for Suzanne, it was her life. And it’s her story. Listen now only on No Filter with Mia Freedman.
You can find Suzanne’s memoir here.
And, follow her on social media here.
