Storm Child: A Scottish Memoir
By Ian Hughes

Born into a tempest of hardship, Ian Hughes was a child of the storm-fighting to survive in a world that seemed determined to break him. From the grey streets of his Scottish hometown to the rigid confines of a children's home, Ian's journey is one of defiance, resilience, and the search for a place to belong.

Told with unflinching honesty and a dark, dry wit, Storm Child is a memoir of survival against the odds. Through the harsh realities of institutional care, the weight of family betrayal, and the small moments of kindness that kept hope alive, Ian's story is both heartbreaking and triumphant.

This is not just a tale of suffering but of endurance-of laughter in the face of adversity, of friendships forged in the fire, and of finding strength where none should exist. Storm Child is a testament to the human spirit, a memoir for anyone who has ever felt lost, alone, or determined to carve their own path in a world that refuses to make space for them.

For those who have weathered the storm, this book is a reminder: This too will pass.
