Lillian grows up in an American fundamentalist Mormon sect which still practices polygamy. At thirteen she becomes the child-bride of a Canadian Bishop. His compound is located deep in the wilderness of British Columbia, totally isolated from the rest of the world.
When the land developer Richard Bergman buys the property next to the Bishop’s compound, he gets involuntarily drawn into the sect’s secret …
My Review:
Even though this is a fiction book it is based on some fact. The book itself was a wonderful page turning thriller! I couldn't get enough of this book. Polygamy has always been something that has interested me and I jumped at the chance to be able to review this book. Now some people will try to say that the way it is all written in the book isn't the case anymore but that's not the truth. Some little areas still practice in this way and more people need to be aware of this and I love that this book could do just that. This is a definite must read for anyone who has even the littlest interest in the topic or for anyone who loves thrillers. I give this book

Thank you for a fantastic review. Well done!
I have this on my reading list. The temptation to throw schedules to the wind and read it now is increasing.
