THE LIFE-AFFIRMING NOVEL ABOUT REAL-LIFE RELIGIOUS FANATICISM AND THE COURAGE OF THREE WOMEN WHO CONFRONT IT, FROM AUTHOR OF BBC2 BETWEEN THE COVERS PICK, ANOTHER LIFE
HOW DO YOU LEAVE A CULT?
Step into a world that lies behind the ordinary front doors of Britain.
A place of loyal wives, obedient children, of faithful (and occasionally faithless) husbands.
Meet Isobel, Jen and Zelda. They know how to please, and they know their place in this world is precarious.
But what happens when they can longer be the person others want them to be – when they stop lying to themselves?
Will each woman stay quiet and keep pleasing?
Or will they stand up and fight?
