The Dirt Beneath Our Door: My Journey to Freedom after Escaping a Polygamous Mormon Cult

Pamela Jones had sixty-one siblings, five sister wives, nine children, and one carefully hidden dream: to escape the violent, fundamentalist Mormon cult that had kept her perpetually pregnant, broken, and brutalized for 34 years. With a daring escape, she gained her freedom, but with less than a fifth-grade education and 9 mouths to feed, her journey had just begun. A remarkable and inspirational true story, this book is not only a testament to a mother's resilience and grit, but an epic and harrowing tale of finding freedom, believing in yourself, and achieving your dreams.
