It is the gripping and erotic story of Ruth, a beautiful young woman, who travels to India in search of truth, happily falling under the spell of an Indian guru and his obscure cult. Desperate to rescue her, her family lures her back to Australia, where she is forced to undergo an intense deprogramming treatment by cult specialist P.J. Waters. ‘Three little steps,’ he says, ‘It could be all over in twenty-four hours.’ ‘Full of interesting ideas about spirituality and belief, freedom and confinement, and the dangerous interplay between power, repulsion and erotic attraction.’
