The Witness Wore Red: The 19th Wife Who Brought Polygamous Cult Leaders to Justice by Rebecca Musser

3.0

This was a really captivating and personal look at what life was like growing up in the FLDS. I really appreciated the commitment to showing as many facets as she experienced - it was not all entirely bad, though much of it was.

I thought Rebecca Musser and her coauthor did a really great job of explaining how awful things were while also remaining compassionate and fair. Definitely recommend for a detailed look inside the FLDS, especially under Warren Jeffs, as well as the investigation and subsequent trials.
