À propos de cet audio
The messianic beliefs of radical LDS fundamentalists Dan Lafferty and his brother Ron drove them to commit an unspeakable crime. This is a riveting, raw, and unfiltered look at the Lafferty family saga from a daughter who lived it, and of her journey to self-love and forgiveness.
Rebecca Lafferty grew up with a volatile, erratic, and ultimately notorious father, Dan Lafferty. She carried the scars of her traumatic upbringing through childhood and into adulthood. But most of all, Rebecca carried the horror of learning about the cold-blooded murder of her aunt and infant cousin in 1984, perpetrated by Dan and Ron according to a revelation Ron had received—as profiled in the Jon Krakauer book and FX/Hulu series Under the Banner of Heaven.
Now, in this riveting memoir, Rebecca tells her own story of survival and healing. Her correspondence with Dan—serving life in prison—insights from relatives, and most importantly, her own lived experience, give her an astoundingly deep point of view on the lead-up to the tragedy and its aftermath.
In this book, Rebecca hopes to encourage other survivors of abuse and trauma to chart their own path to healing and peace.
Ce que les critiques en disent
"For years, her life was defined by the violence of others. Now, Rebecca Lafferty tells the story of surviving the unthinkable—and finding the strength to heal. I applaud Rebecca’s strength to put her story into the world. This is how we break cycles and change lives."—Kimberly Shannon Murphy, author of Glimmer: A Story of Survival, Hope, and Healing
