Murder in the Fourth - Ruth Anne Whicher

Murder in the Fourth is both a story of escape and exposure: escape from the clutches of a fear-driven ideology, and exposure of the secret mind-bending machinations employed by religious cults to keep members compliant, submissive and isolated from mainstream society. Depicting one family's suffering and righteous indignities under the strict and arbitrary tenets of the Jehovah's Witness organization, this touching narrative, based on real events, mirrors thousands of other families torn apart by the divisive nature of similar religions. In this remarkable work, Whicher and Martin take murder to a new level.
