In September 2007, Elissa Wall, the star witness against polygamous sect leader Warren Jeffs, gave captivating testimony of how Jeffs forced her to marry her first cousin at age 14. This harrowing account proved to be the most compelling evidence against Jeffs, showing the harsh realities of this closed community and the lengths to which Jeffs went in order to control the sect's women. Now, in this courageous memoir, Wall tells the incredible story of how she emerged from the confines of the Fundamentalist Church of Latter Day Saints and helped bring one of America's most notorious criminals to justice.

A Little Piece of Light tells the heartfelt, often harrowing tale of Donna's journey back to life as she faced the truth about the crime that locked her away for 27 years...

Highly recommend
Well written story that at times is not easy to listen to, but the message is important. I am personally glad that a catholic priest is written in as I have come to regret my former judgmental attitude towards the Catholic faith. One area I wish the book can be improved on is that I wish the author can read his own lines in the interviews at the end of the book. That would make it perfect.

Compelling!
I read Jamie Arpin-Ricci's novella some time ago. In it, he tells the story of two moms. One the mom of a murder victim, the other the mother of the man convicted for her death. The book opens with his execution. It tells of both women's hunger for justice and struggle to move past the tragedy that gripped both their lives. It is the sort of book you read in one sitting. It's short. But also compelling and gripping and rooted in Arpin-Ricci's own advocacy work for ending the death penalty.
Listening to Patricia Santomasso's narration is every bit as engrossing as the novel itself. She is utterly convincing as the novel's narrative voice (both women in turn). This book will hit you right in the feels and has a larger afterward than the print edition I have on kindle (including an interview with a mother of a man executed on death row.
