'A harrowing-but-moving story' - Stylist
'Raw, brave and vulnerable. Told with such clarity and purpose' - Maxine Mei-Fung Chung
'A brave and deeply moving story of fierce spirit' - Dakota Johnson
Bexy Cameron was in her late twenties when the dark events of her past finally caught up with her.
Bexy was born into the Children of God, one of the world's most notorious cults. She was 9 years old when she experienced her first exorcism, held in a secret commune deep in the British countryside. At 10, she was placed on Silence Restriction, forced to be silent for a whole year. Even from an early age, she knew what was happening was not right. At the age of 15, she escaped, leaving behind her parents and 11 siblings.
Haunted by her past, Bexy set off on a road trip across America, embedding herself in the underbelly of religious cults, living with children who, like her, are born into the worlds their parents and cult leaders have created for them.
It is a journey of meth cooks, monks, Jesus Freaks, soap-making Armageddonists, surveillance vans and finally, confronting her parents and herself.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Bexy Cameron grew up in the notorious Children of God cult, where the concept of family means something very different to what we are all used to. One of 12 children, her parents were the face of the cult in the UK, and through occasional glimpses of the world outside, she held on to a spark of resilience and resistance which grew into a flame.Long after her escape from the cult and now a successful film-maker, Bexy could no longer ignore her need for answers to questions that had haunted her for a decade. Why were her parents still in the cult? Can these places so renowned for evil ever be a force for good as their acolytes so fervently believe they are? Determined to find peace, she set off on a road trip across America to explore the hold cults still hold today.We all know that our childhoods can cast long, dragging shadows. But can you ever truly come to terms with what you've been through? What does it actually take? Can you ever escape your childhood?
