I found myself drawn to this story. It was a story both disturbing and hopeless, but finally hope wins out. For some.
While this is a fictional story, it appeared to be loosely based on the same polygamist community that Warren Jeffs was (or still is?) the leader of.
It's hard to imagine that women and girls are willing participants in such a community, but reports from those who have left bear out much of what is written here.
A few "scenes" are on the unbelievable side, and yet. . .one can begin to imagine how a society that is cloaked in secrecy is able to maintain such a perverse and destructive worldview among its members.
