The star of the globally acclaimed docuseries Trust Me shares her riveting personal history of joining cults and fleeing cult leaders, blending her first-hand survivor account with her thoughtful analysis as a cult expert, in the tradition of Christine Brown Woolley and Shari Franke.

Millions of viewers were captivated by Dr. Christine Marie's stunning liberation of a group of young Mormon women and girls from an abusive cult leader in the docuseries Trust Me. But few know that Christine's passion for freeing victims from cults and trauma comes from deeply rooted personal experience.

BELIEVE ME chronicles the childhood experiences that led Christine to mainstream Mormonism and then to the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. She writes of surviving sexual assaults and subsequent legal battles, her brief brush with NXIVM founder Keith Raniere, and her fall into and escape from the self-proclaimed prophet Christopher Nemelka's control.

But Christine also tells the story of how she --literally and figuratively--came to wear rose-colored glasses, despite everything she's been through. Her memoir will shed light on vivid, fascinating details of her story, including her past as a Mrs. Michigan pageant winner, a motivational speaker, a children's TV ventriloquist, and a devoted single mom of four. And she writes about how escaping such dark situations led her to earn a PhD in psychology and to dismantling Sam Bateman's cult in front of the whole world in Trust Me - experiences that earned her the title the cult whisperer. BELIEVE ME is a rare blend of a firsthand survivor account and an expert accounting of why cults rise, fall, and rise again.
