description: When Anne A Johnson Davis was just three years old her mother and stepfather began to physically sexually and mentally torture her in the name of Satan. Until she ran away from home at 17 her parents and other cult members subjected her to satanic ritual abuse (SRA) a criminally inhumane and bizarre form of devil worship. In the middle of the night Anne would be drugged and forced to endure hours of ritualistic torture as a symbolic sacrifice. The horrors she experienced the miracles that made it possible for her to survive and the hard choices she made as an adult to triumph over her past are revealed in her new book Hell Minus My Story of Deliverance from Satanic Ritual Abuse and My Journey to Freedom. Anne's story is different from other previously published memoirs by victims of SRA. Instead of distressing heart-breaking accounts without collaborative or corroborative evidence Anne's story is fully and responsibly documented. Her parents confessed their atrocities-both in writing and verbally-to clergymen and to detectives from the Utah Attorney General's Office. Anne's suppressed memories which erupted when she was in her mid-30s were fully substantiated by her mother and stepfather. Hell Minus One is an unforgettable and moving story that takes the reader to the depths of human depravity and to the heavens of human will and forgiveness. The foreword was written by Lt. Detective Matt Jacobson who was the lead investigator with the Utah Attorney General's Office on Anne's case.
