Stalked and Shot: A True Story of Survival and Change

by Sharon Velisek

In order to show how naively a relationship can go wrong, Sharon divulges her involvement from the very first date to the breakup. And to show how innocently stalking behavior can escalate, Sharon has put together a chronological series of events complete with everyone’s participation, including the police, the stalker, the doctor, the lawyer, counsellor, and friends. This is an honest and rare birds-eye view of how stalking can spiral out of control. This story will grip you from the very first date to the fateful night of the attempted murder. It is a must read if you don’t want to be stalked, if you are being stalked, or if you know of someone being stalked.

Wow. I am an avid reader and stumbled upon this book by recommendation. It was phenomenal. Page turner for sure. Every red flag Sharon missed is something I’m sure every woman has felt in abusive relationships. Incredibly sad how it went from bad to worse to devastating but.... Sharon rises the hero to help others. This book brought so much emotion and even tears. Thank you for sharing your journey Sharon. A must read.

Terrifying, engrossing story of survival

A complex, well written narrative and the eventual end of a toxic relationship. The victim shows her bravery and finds her voice, finally helping to change laws and regulations in her country. Inspirational. Highly recommended for people who have, or know someone who is/has been stalked.

this was a hard read. i read this because i was listening to some stalker podcasts, so it was interesting to hear straight from the victim/survivors.
