- About The Author
- An author, singer, and teacher, Jess Blatchley has always been fascinated by complex, nuanced characters, and enjoys exploring unreliable protagonists. Her fascination with contradictory human behaviour stems from her experience being recruited into a religious cult in her early teens, where Jess spent twenty years of her life. Much of her writing is inspired by her survival and recovery, and she continues to devote time to supporting individuals exiting toxic groups and healing from spiritual abuse.
