About this listen

The audio edition includes clips from documentary material and interviews gathered by the author during her time spent travelling and living with various cults across America.

Devastatingly moving, brilliantly inspiring and utterly unforgettable, Cult Following is a searing memoir of survival, love and transformation.

Bexy Cameron was in her late 20s then the dark events of her past finally caught up with her.

Bexy was born into the Children of God, one of the world's most notorious cults. She was nine years old when she experienced her first exorcism, held in a secret commune deep in the British countryside. At 10, she was placed on Silence Restriction, forced to be silent for a whole year. Even from an early age, she knew what was happening was not right. At the age of 15, she escaped, leaving behind her parents and 11 siblings.

Haunted by her past, Bexy set off on a road trip across America, embedding herself in the underbelly of religious cults, living with children who, like her, are born into the worlds their parents and cult leaders have created for them.

It is a journey of meth cooks, monks, Jesus Freaks, soap-making Armageddonists, surveillance vans and finally, confronting her parents and herself.

This story is a glimpse into a completely different but very real world. Bexy tells her story in epic and honest detail.

She manages to keep you riding a wave of emotions. I literally laughed, cried and even got angry. I don’t know where to start!!! This story needs to be heard.

Raw, emotional and so well written!

I bought this after hearing Bexy on the radio. It doesn’t disappoint. She is thoughtful and reflective over what was an unusual and difficult child hood. There is no self pity or mawkishness, more a telling of the story, the pain and difficulty and the moments of joy that were snatched. I would recommend this to those who not only have an interest in cults and those who leave them, but anyone who wants to reflect on the impact of their childhood on their adult life

A great book of insight, personal reflection and maturity
