Their escape on May 6, 2013, made headlines around the world. Barely out of her own tumultuous childhood, Michelle was estranged from her family and fighting for custody of her young son when she disappeared. Local police believed she had run away, so they removed her from the missing persons lists fifteen months after she vanished. Castro tormented her with these facts, reminding her that no one was looking for her, that the outside world had forgotten her. But Michelle would not be broken. In Finding Me, Michelle will reveal the heartbreaking details of her story, including the thoughts and prayers that helped her find courage to endure her unimaginable circumstances and now build a life worth living. By sharing both her past and her efforts to create a future, Michelle becomes a voice for the voiceless and a powerful symbol of hope for the thousands of children and young adults who go missing every year.

I nästan 11 år var hon i Ariel Castros våld, inlåst i hans hus i Cleveland, Ohio. Michelle Knight är en av de tre kvinnor som hölls fången av Ariel Castro i hans hus i Cleveland och hon var hans första offer. Michelle lockades till Castros hem i augusti 2002. Hon var då 21 år. I april 2003 tog Castro sitt andra offer – den knappt 17-åriga Amanda Berry och ett år senare kidnappade han Gina DeJesus, 14 år. Berättelsen om de 3 911 dagar som Michelle Knight var inlåst i Ariel Castros hem är en skakande skildring, men historien om hennes liv före bortrövandet är också, minst sagt, gripande. Hennes uppväxt var långt ifrån idyllisk. Om den misshandel hon fick utstå i Castros hus har hon sagt: ”You can’t break what is already broken, you can only make it stronger.”
