Description
Imagine this. Your mother tells you shes going away for two years, and is leaving you with relatives youve never heard of. In a different city. Relatives who, you discover, are members of a closed religious sect. There is no television, no radio, no newspaper. No mirrors. You must wear long, modest clothes and behave in a Godly way. Or else. Oh and they give you a new name. Esther. Escape? Who to? Where? How? Here is every teenagers nightmare, a gripping psychological thriller set in New Zealand. Kirbys experience of life in a fundamentalist cult is drawn in careful and convincing detail, building to a powerful battle over identity. - from Amzon
