Mikey was born into a Romany Gypsy family. They live in a closeted community and little is known about their way of life. After centuries of persecution Gypsies are wary of outsiders and if you choose to leave you can never come back.
This is something Mikey knows only too well.
Growing up, he didn't go to school, he seldom mixed with non-Gypsies and the caravan became his world. But although Mikey inherited a vibrant and loyal culture, his family's legacy was bittersweet with a hidden
history of grief and abuse.
Eventually Mikey was forced to make an agonising decision - to stay and keep secrets, or escape and find somewhere to belong.
