I always find it interesting to read stories about experiences in a cult. I am certain this fictional story will be no exception. I will definitely be adding this to my reading list.

I also appreciated the attention to detail in depicting Jeff's struggle with mental health. It adds a layer of realism and empathy to the narrative. The book's ability to evoke such strong emotions, from concern to anger, is a testament to its powerful storytelling.

I think your statement, ‘religious organisations with cult mentalities prey on vulnerable people’, tells is all we need to know. Also, it’s very true about the brain-washing and the susceptibility of any of us to the thrall of cults. Great review. In Kenya here we are currently unearthing bodies of cult members sent to their grave by their beliefs...and they are all normal people! A book like this should probably be required reading.

Well-deserved 4 stars rating. Though it's scary to think of what can happen when someone is brainwashed into a system. I hope the couple survives. Congratulations to the author.

I’ve never read any books about cults so this is very intriguing, I’m also a fan of the thriller genre so I can’t wait to pick it up! Thank you for the review.

I am not much of a religious fanatic but this novel has me wanting to read more of it. I want to know if Melany will eventually be able to help Jeff and if they will be able to leave this religious cult. Congratulations to the author on book of the day.

This is detailed review, and I like the way she describes the characters and the plot, it like I'm the one who read this book. I've never thought to read such genre, thriller but the cult, couple ,church makes this books so interesting. The way she describes the way she feels, scared, concern , fear is always what I think about when I read a book, this sound cool. Thank you for the book.

If it might happen sometimes God give me authority to talk to every women and men, I will tell them they must marry those partners only if they have same dreams, wishes like them, so that they will live a happy life till the end, and also in bad times like Melody and Jeff. Jeff was ill so bad, Melody decided to be away to her work and take care with Jeff.
