Publisher's Synopsis
After being born into an evangelical religious cult that evolved into an abusive communal life, Deborah and her twin sister Esther experienced vastly different outcomes. Control issues for one, impulsivity for the other. Both attempted to self-heal by healing others. Deb spent thirty-four years in emergency nursing, Esther, sixteen years as an ER Tech. Esther's subsequent death in 2013, led Deb to write 'The Serpent's Tail', a memoir-in-verse detailing their first fourteen years in the cult and the devastating aftermath. She left the emergency to work with Veterans in recovery. Deb still lives in the Prescott Quad Cities.
