"Every day more than three women in South Africa, on average, are murdered by their male intimate partners. This book looks at the stories of South African women who were subjected to unimaginable periods of fear and terror, who endured sustained physical, emotional, and psychological attacks, all at the hands of men who said they love them. Many of these women tried to leave or fought back against their abuser. Some succeeded escaping for safety. Others died with their protection orders still in their bags."--
