Customer Reviews

Much appreciated insight.

Thank you Arthur Deikman for your no-nonsense brilliance and insight. I came across this book at the perfect time and am so grateful that I did.

Easy to read and very informative

For anyone who is interested in why someone would stay involved in a cult, or become involved in the first place this book will answer your questions. The simplicity of the answers is astounding. I absolutely reccomend reading this book.
