In September 2007, a packed courtroom in St. George, Utah, sat hushed as
Elissa Wall, the star witness against polygamous sect leader Warren Jeffs,
gave captivating testimony of how Jeffs forced her to marry her first
cousin at age fourteen. Showing the harsh realities of this closed
community and the lengths to which Jeffs went in order to control the
sect's women, was displayed through her eyes.

Now, in this courageous memoir, Elissa Wall tells the incredible and
inspirational story of how she emerged from the confines of the
Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints (FLDS) and helped bring one of
America's most notorious criminals to justice. Offering a child's
perspective on life in the FLDS, Wall discusses her tumultuous youth,
explaining how her family's turbulent past intersected with her strong
will and identified her as a girl who needed to be controlled through
marriage.

Hear the heart wrenching story of how her childhood was shattered, as she
was obligated to follow Jeffs's directives and submit to her husband in
"mind, body, and soul." She was trapped and forced to endure the pain and
abuse of her loveless relationship, which eventually pushed her to spend
nights sleeping in her truck rather than face the tormentor in her bed.

Yet even in those bleak times, she retained a sliver of hope that one day
she would find a way out, and one snowy night that came in the form of a
rugged stranger named Lamont Barlow. How would he save her from this
tormented life?

More than a tale of survival and freedom, Stolen Innocence is the story of
one heroic woman who stood up for what was right and reclaimed her life.
