A Little Lower Than Angels

by Helen Travers

When a devout Jehovah's Witness girl becomes involved with the very people the Watchtower Society warned her about, she finds herself emotionally possessed by a psychopath who not only becomes her husband but her pimp. Narrowly escaping death from a knife wielding rapist while working the streets she blames herself for her predicament and everything that's going wrong in her life. Her mother blames her husband. Would the Jehovah's Witness organization also blame Satan the Devil? Surely she must have had a corrupt mind and heart in the first place? Why can't she 'get a grip'? Even after her husband is sentenced to jail for five years no one seems able to reach her - until one day she meets a certain woman. This woman holds the keys to the beginning of a new attitude, a new life she never thought possible - though not without its own set of curious dramas. The story has an underlying theme of the sociopathic nature and those who become entrapped by their charm and seeming intelligence.
