For years, Maryanne Walker-Tate has endured appalling physical and psychological abuse at the hands of her husband Daniel. But it is not until she finds the strength to fight back that the real battle starts - a battle with the law, which does nothing to protect the victim but everything to help the abuser. The startling and disturbing drama Going Underground tells the true story of how one battered wife's nightmare existence and the drastic steps she took to protect herself and her children brought this gross injustice to the attention of a shocked American public.
