A memoir project dedicated to raising awareness for domestic violence and sexual assault by sharing Kerry Keyes' remarkable life story.
A young woman’s harrowing journey across state lines to escape an endless cycle of abuse. Raised in a comfortable middle class neighborhood in America’s Midwest, Kerry’s seduction by a master manipulator plunges her into a world of deceit and violence. Forced to perform illegal acts to keep herself alive and her family intact, she spirals downward, ending up behind bars.

From St. Louis to Denver to San Francisco and back, Kerry’s story grabs and won’t let go. Ultimately a testimony to resilience, courage and love of family, She Can Fly is a frightening adrenaline rush that reads like true crime—a poignant cautionary tale, culminating in redemption, justice, and hope.
