Set adrift by sudden unemployment, web designer Michelle Thomson is at an impasse in her life when she is introduced to a charismatic spiritual teacher known only as Ma. Though initially skeptical, Michelle is soon captivated by Ma’s energy and insight and begins to find new meaning both in Ma’s teachings and as a member of her insular community. While at first she blossoms under Ma’s guidance, when Michelle uncovers deception at the heart of all she has come to believe in, she is forced to face the ultimate test any spiritual teacher can give.
WHAT REVIEWERS HAVE SAID:
"This debut novel is a must-read for those interesed in spiritual communities and transformation.†-Enfuse Magazine
"Many ponder how anyone would wish to become a member of a cult. By reading “The Heart of a Cult,†you will understand that one doesn’t have to be brainwashed, held captive and weak to do so. Virtuous characteristics are promised to those who are led on this mission under the assumption of personal belonging and healing from life’s painful hurts and issues. You will discover how easy it is to become convinced that a cult’s goals are admirable and honorable." - Reader Views
“I was hooked on this book from day one…As Michelle struggles to understand her spiritual path and find a connection with God, we readers are taken along for the ride…Not being an overly “spiritual†person myself, I was unsure of how I would connect with this book. Whether you're spiritual or not, you will find yourself relating to the main characters, and taking a look at your own life. The story is real, honest and sincere, and one that I would recommend to anyone, no matter what your reading preference may be.†-Book of the Moment Reviews
