This book goes into great detail about the sad lives of not only the sisters but also the remaining family members and also so many innocent children. The brainwashing is something that is just horrid and the lives these children were forced to live is unthinkable.

To go through all they went through, and are still going through...to come out of the life they were forced to live and write about it is something that is very hard to do, but with the hope that others will read their story and be able to get help. I have no words to describe the life these sisters had to live and now that they are grown, educated, have children of their own and lives that seem to be rewarding for them. This is a must read book.

There are many "cults" out there that are hush, hush, as the one that they were forced to live in and with and this book opens not only the eyes of those that are living this but also others that can lend a helping hand and make a difference in someone's life.

To the Sisters: You are an inspiration to so many that feel trapped and are being forced to live lives similar to the one you had. Thank you for a book that can not only help but can give them a glimmer of hope that they to can make it. I commend you all for having the strength and courage to tell your story no matter what others thought, feel, or say was not true, seen, or thought not to be wrong.

I would recommend your book to any and all who would want something to read in hopes that they too would be willing to open their hearts and hands to help others through and to better a life for the ones that can break free and make it! You are all amazing.

Thank you, from my heart to yours.
