The Contraption

Local Author books are NON RETURNABLE 
 
The two young lovers counted themselves lucky to have found one another and the wedding was just weeks away….

Then, it was over, as one of them abruptly disappeared. Audrey was not abducted. Not exactly. She was not taken against her will. Rather, her will itself had been taken. Coerced and controlled. Deceived and derailed. Matthias cannot walk away from the catastrophe, though he has nothing to go on, and is in the dark beyond all personal darkness he has ever known . . .

Audrey has been recruited into a dangerous, coercive religious cult. Her fiancé is left not knowing even where she is. Her name has been changed and she has been relocated to another state. The cult, Church of the Mountain of Radiance, is an all-controlling psychological prison.

This is a story of lovers separated in the cruelest of ways, and the all-out effort to restore that love.

A portion of the proceeds of the first edition of The Contraption will benefit ICSA, the International Cultic Studies Association, the nation’s oldest organization for educating the public on psychological abuse.
