A story that will change how you see the home next door
Join the WaitlistAnne is a bereaved mother struggling to make sense of her daughter's sudden death. She was told Sarah Elizabeth died from an accidental fall — the tragic aftermath of a break-in. But six months after the funeral, a single phone call shatters everything Anne believed.
The entire town knew what Anne did not: her college-educated, stay-at-home daughter had endured three years of emotional, physical, and sexual violence at the hands of her partner.
Through Anne's journey of discovery, Dr. Cerulli weaves decades of research and clinical experience into a gripping narrative that challenges assumptions about who experiences intimate partner violence — and why it remains so deeply hidden.
How intimate partner violence can exist openly in a community while remaining invisible to those closest to the victim.
Anne's devastating realization that the daughter she thought she knew was living a secret life of terror.
A translational novel that transforms decades of research into a narrative readers can feel, not just study.
The uncomfortable truth about collective silence and the social dynamics that enable abuse to continue.
Exploring the legal and systemic failures that leave victims without protection or recourse.
How awareness, education, and courage can disrupt patterns of violence that persist across generations.
