Stolen Innocence: My Story of Growing Up in a Polygamous Sect, Becoming a Teenage Bride, and Breaking Free of Warren Jeffs.

by Elissa Wall with Lisa Pulitzer (2008)

As horrific as Elissa's story is, the great value of this book is not necessarily what is written, but what is not. Reading between the lines will give you a glimpse into the minds of those living in a religious sect, and how some victims may bond with their victimizers to the point of no return.
