But eleven years later, Kate shows up dehydrated and malnourished, showing signs of severe abuse in Montana with a baby by her side. With Kate returning, her family\u2019s lives are turned upside down. As they struggle to understand what happened with Kate during those years, shocking revelations come to surface and threaten to destroy their lives. The narrative shifts between past and present and is told from the perspectives of Kate, Meredith, and Abbi. Kate\u2019s story is chilling and full of dread as she recounts the shocking cruelty from her days at the cult. Berry\u2019s exploration of Kate\u2019s complete entrapment in the cult community is both compelling and disturbing. The pace gets hampered in the middle from the monotony of Kate\u2019s story, but Berry threw in another twist that invests readers\u2019 interest until the shocking culmination.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>When She Returned<\/h2>\n<h3>by Lucinda Berry<\/h3>\n<h4>Thomas &amp; Mercer<\/h4>\n<h4>Pub Date 15 Oct 2019<\/h4>\n<h4>ISBN 9781542092920<\/h4>\n<h4>PRICE $15.95 (USD)<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Dark and\u00a0disturbing\u2026 When Kate Bennett vanished from a Target parking lot, her husband and daughter never thought they would see her again.
