About the Book
In October 1998, the Concerned Christians mysteriously left Denver, Colorado in the middle of the night. Believing that America was Babylon and that Denver would soon be destroyed, the alleged "doomsday cult" left their comfortable lives, their loved ones, jobs, and homes, to meet the unreasonable demands of the cult leader.
For a brief period of time, the highly publicized cult opened its invisible prison gates and permitted a few cult members to communicate with the secular world using email. Tormented by their absence, Betty J. R. Chavez struggled to convince her sister, Jan and Jan's millionaire husband John to return home and resume their rich life. Their email correspondence contained threats, accusations, persecutions, and finally a challenge. Betty acknowledged the aforementioned and accepted the challenge to analyze how Jan and John were tricked into joining the cult.
She had to reach them before it was too late.
