Not Without My Sister by Kristina Jones
The bestselling, devastating account of three sisters torn apart, abused and exploited at the hands of a community that robbed them of their childhood. It reveals three lives, separate but entwined, that have experienced unspeakable horror, unrelenting loyalty and unforgettable courage.‘A chilling account of life in the grip of a sinister madness' Daily Mail
Celeste, Kristina and Juliana were all born into the cult The Children of God to the same father, who remains a member. The three girls were separated from each other and their mothers at an early age and lived in communes throughout the world under the guardianship of foster parents.
Kristina and her mother escaped when she was 11 years old, but Celeste and Juliana were hidden by the cult until they were adults. Celeste gathered the courage to escape in her mid-twenties when she became pregnant, wanting a better life for her daughter in freedom.
The suicide of one of their sisters spurred Juliana to leave the cult and reunite with her sisters.
Celeste graduated from university and is now a Play and Creative Art Therapist. Kristina runs a community cafe supporting people with learning difficulties. Juliana lives in Italy as a writer and ultra endurance cyclist with the first woman's Guinness World Record for circumnavigating the globe by bicycle.
