Grnemae avatar reviewed on + 451 more book reviews


A look inside the LeBaron polygamy group by a woman whose parents joined The Church of the Firstborn of the Fullness of Time when she was just 5 years old. It tells her journey to self awareness of the dangers of Ervil LeBaron and his followers as he struggled to gain control of his brother's church as well as those of rival polygamy groups. It was upon learning of the doctrine of blood atonement when she was a teen that the author first began to really question her beliefs. Horrifying and sad what the followers of the various factions of the LeBaron's faced as Ervil and his followers spread their murderous teachings.
