Description
A harrowing story of sexual abuse, privilege and trauma unfolds in this powerful novel. On Christmas Eve, a young woman with Down's syndrome discloses abuse by two men who are part of the British aristocracy. As a national health team struggles to cope with the situation, they uncover the dark reality of The Orpheus Project, a mysterious international cult that offers a form of immortality through deliberately installed dissociative disorders. At its core, this novel tells the story of a mother and daughter who find a way to reunite, despite the long-term consequences of childhood trauma. As the team delves deeper into the world of The Orpheus Project, they must confront the appalling truth about this secret society and its powerful connections. A gripping exploration of abuse, privilege, and the human spirit, this novel is a thought-provoking and unsettling read. The author's masterful storytelling weaves together themes of family, relationships, and psychology to create a compelling narrative that will keep you engaged until the very end.
