Th is is the true story of one boy's struggle to survive the rage and violence of an alcoholic father and then later in childhood, his hateful and sadistic stepmother. Left behind at the age of four by his mother, he is shuttled from one foster home to another, only to ultimately return to the custody of his father, a ruthless six-foot-three man who did not hesitate in unleashing his alcohol inspired wrath upon a small and helpless child on a regular and ongoing basis.
