“I have just finished reading this book and couldn’t put it down. David certainly has an excellent imagination. The book was very well written although I thought it could have been a bit longer. Would recommend to anyone who likes a good read. ” – Mrs. Melanie Gedling on 17th February 2016.
If the measure of a good book is it’s after burn, Access Denied is a great book. Thought-provoking, honest, extraordinary, revealing. A damning indictment of the Child Support Agency and Family Courts.

Thoroughly enjoyed reading this true story
Very well written. Thoroughly enjoyed reading this true story. So sad though that someone could be so horrible as to do that to someone they profess to love beggars belief.

Am so unbelievably chuffed about this!

“I bought the book after hearing that David and I had a lot in common with regards to absent children that we desperately miss – having nightmare ex partner’s and also having to deal with the Child Support Agency. The book arrived Saturday morning and by the early hours of Sunday morning I had finished it as I didn’t want to put it down. David’s is a heart-breaking story and so honest and open he must be given a massive pat on the back. David told me if he can help others in a similar situation to him, then some good would have come out of his horrid situation. I’m still at the beginning of my battle with the CSA (at the appeal stage) but so many things David talks about in the book ring so true with my situation. Thank you, David as this book WILL help me and others. We may never come to terms with the heartbreak we suffer since losing our children at the hands of sociopaths – but if we can keep our heads above water financially, that will help us deal with day to day life and trying to get on with things. Recommended!” – Emma.
