From ashrams to arsenic, Woman Speak tells of surviving domestic abuse and the continuing aftermath of stalking.
Stan made Leahsandra's deepest dreams come true... until they turned into screaming night terrors. His offer to take her on a two-month sabbatical into the wilderness proved too much to resist, though she knew the man only on a surface level. The two months turned into years of travel, adventures, and joyous immersion into nature.
But then the spooky things began.
Woman Speak delves deeply into the realms of psychological, emotional, and financial abuse. It also recounts the emotions of a woman stalked.
Leahsandra's unique journey provides an intimate view into a variety of worlds unknown to the average American, while offering a warning about the kind of world one can inadvertently stumble into - the realm of mentally unstable, obsessed people.
Woman Speak might make readers laugh, could make them cry, but will make them think deeply about the people they allow into their lives, and how long they keep silent about them.
Excerpt
"There is a power in speaking, whether it's oral or written speech. A power in telling the truth, even when that truth brings your own shame to light... There are angry, sick people out there, both male and female. They might look quite normal, but beneath their masks, they're busy spinning webs... and oh how hard it can be to untangle yourself from that web."
