These events fiercely unraveled her one-safe world into a dungeon of despair propelled by life-or-death threats and brain-washed promises of "not to tell". Her journey through hell, led by the devil himself, clearly demonstrates the destructive trail of deceit, including lying to herself, in her desperate attempt to save lives: her own, her unborn child's, and her family members'.
