This gripping memoir takes readers inside one of the world's most secretive organisations. Mike Rinder spent decades at the highest levels of Scientology, eventually becoming one of its most senior executives and chief spokesman, before making the extraordinary decision to walk away from everything he'd ever known.
With unflinching honesty, Rinder reveals what life is truly like within the organisation—the intense dedication, the controversial practices, and the personal cost of absolute commitment. His journey from devoted insider to outspoken critic offers a rare and compelling glimpse behind the curtain of an institution that has long fascinated and bewildered the public.
Both shocking and deeply human, this is an essential account of manipulation, resilience, and the courage required to reclaim one's own life.
