Publisher Comments:

This chilling true story of a successful family reveals the hidden reality behind appearances. Colin is a brilliant, handsome, and charming man to the outside world, recruited by both the CIA and IBM. With all his success, the perception was that he had it all. Instead, the reality was a hellish nightmare of verbal and atrocious physical abuse for Alley, his beautiful wife, and their six children. Alley feels helpless to protect her children from Colin's constant attacks. Then, three mysterious women visit her and promise he will never hurt them again ¾ if she gives them what they want. For the sake of the children, she agrees. The women work their evil and Alley gains immense power against Colin, but finds herself demonically possessed. This horror-filled battle between Colin's insatiable appetite for abuse and Alley's demons will grip you and not let go.

I recently read this memoir and think it would make a phenomenal movie. The book felt so real I thought through the unique and marvelous writing style that I'd been pulled inside the house. It is an eye opener and the shocking twist caught me off guard. The characters were heartwrenching. I recommend this book strongly to everyone. If you want a book that challenges you to look at social issues, makes you think about your life, is emotionally gripping, and well written this is it. If you want a book that is just very good. This is it too!
