Summary
Mikey's family were Gypsies. They live in a closed community and little is known about their way of life. As he didn't go to school, the caravan became his world. But although Mikey inherited a vibrant culture, his family had a dark hidden history. Eventually Mikey was forced to make a decision – to stay and keep secrets, or escape and find somewhere to belong.

WOW Captivating
NEVER have I been so captivated by an audio book - his story is so shocking, sad, happy, funny and humbling. His narration is so effortlessly told you're living his every moment with him. I have NEVER been prouder of a total stranger in my life and would be an honour and a privilege to meet this man. Enthralling insight into a shut, clandestine world with both shockingly sad and tremendously happy moments. An absolute MUST read/listen.

A Good Listen with Great Narration
A book that gets you gripped and very well narrated by the author. Very sad in parts, but inspiring in others. Well worth a listen.
