About the Book

Eva just wants to be a good disciple of Righteous Path. She grew up knowing that she's among the chosen few to be saved from Armageddon. Lately, though, being saved feels awfully treacherous. Ever since they moved to the compound in Colorado, their food supplies have dwindled even while their leader, Ezekiel, has stockpiled weapons. The only money comes from the jewelry Eva makes and sells down in Boulderâa purpose she'll serve until she becomes one of Ezekiel's wives. But a college student named Trevor and the other "heathens" she meets on her trips beyond the compound are far different from what she's been led to believe. Now Eva doesn't know which is more dangerousâthe outside world, or Brother Ezekiel's plansâ¦

Review :

"Fixmer presents a fascinating inside look at daily life in a religious cult in this suspenseful coming-of-age story. Readers learn of the psychology that compels continued membership despite the demanding lifestyle."--VOYA

"Fixmer, a therapist who has counseled former religious cult members, has written a taut psychological drama with believable and sympathetic characters. The first-person narrative sustains a tense mood throughout."--School Library Journal

"Fixmer's references to C.S. Lewis's Narnia books persuasively contrast the image of a loving god against the harshness of Reverend Ezekial in this absorbing and smartly paced novel."--Publishers Weekly

"It's impossible not to root for Eva as she learns to trust her instincts and her own feelings. Teen readers fascinated by religious cults will be drawn in by Eva's story."--Booklist

"The action and the psychological realism combine to make an intriguing story, with believable characters and events. An absorbing treatment of a fascinating subject."--Kirkus Reviews
