A memoir of life inside the FLDS and a public fight for justice

Elissa Wall’s memoir brings together two accounts: her firsthand experience growing up in the FLDS community and the courtroom testimony that helped convict its leader, Warren Jeffs. The book describes the expectations placed on girls within the sect and Wall’s forced marriage at fourteen, then traces her effort to break her silence and seek freedom. Its subject is both personal and institutional: Wall’s story offers a perspective on subjugation within a religious community and on one woman’s role in a criminal case that drew public attention.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in memoirs about religious communities and life within the FLDS.
  • Readers seeking firsthand accounts of survival, escape, and the pursuit of justice.
  • Readers interested in the role of testimony in a criminal case.

Book overview

"Both creepy...and quite moving."


--New York Times Book Review

"Wall's story couldn't be more timely."


--People

Stolen Innocence is the gripping New York Times bestselling memoir of Elissa Wall, the courageous former member of Utah's infamous FLDS polygamist sect whose powerful courtroom testimony helped convict controversial sect leader Warren Jeffs in September 2007. At once shocking, heartbreaking, and inspiring, Wall's story of subjugation and survival exposes the darkness at the root of this rebel offshoot of the Mormon faith.

 

Her testimony put a prophet in prison. This is the true story of her fight for freedom.

 

  • A Teenage Bride: At just fourteen years old, Elissa was forced by the prophet into a "celestial marriage" with her own first cousin, a man she loathed.
  • Growing Up in a Cult: A gripping, firsthand account of life inside the FLDS, where girls are taught to 'keep sweet, ' wear pioneer dresses, and obey without question.
  • The Fight for Justice: Discover the incredible courage it took for Elissa to stand up, break her silence, and deliver the powerful courtroom testimony that helped convict Warren Jeffs.
  • An Inspiring Survival Story: A shocking but ultimately hopeful memoir about escaping subjugation, reclaiming her life, and finding the strength to speak truth to power.
