As seen in the HBO docuseries THE VOW: The shocking and subversive memoir of a 12-year-NXIVM-member-turned-whistleblower, and her inspiring true story of abuse, escape, and redemption.

"'Master, would you brand me? It would be an honor.' From the second I climb onto the table, acutely aware that I am lying in the sweat of my sisters, I will have blocked that out. Lying there completely naked, I am at my most vulnerable but determined to prove my strength. I try to keep my legs closed as my body wills itself to protect my most private area. . . . I tell myself: I am a warrior. I birthed a human. I can handle pain. But nothing could have ever prepared me for the feel of this fire on my skin."

Scarred is Sarah Edmondson's compelling memoir of her recruitment into the NXIVM cult, the 12 years she spent within the organization (during which she enrolled over 2,000 members and entered DOS--NXIVM's "secret sisterhood"), her breaking point, and her harrowing fight to get out, to expose Keith Raniere and the leadership, to help others, and to heal. Complete with personal photographs, Scarred is also an eye-opening story about abuses of power, female trust and friendship, and how sometimes the search to be "better" can override everything else.

- In the tradition of Unorthodox by Deborah Feldman, Escape by Carolyn Jessop, and Troublemaker by Leah Remini
- This tell-all follows Sarah from the moment she takes her first NXIVM seminar, to the invitation she accepts from her best friend, Lauren Salzman, into DOS, to her journey toward become a key witness in the federal case against its founders
- Evokes questions about friendship, ethics, good and evil, making it a brilliant selection for book clubs

Beautiful clutch... but chain is defective
Color: Navy, Color: Navy
This is a really beautiful clutch and the size inside is perfect for your necessities. (lip balm, hand sanitizer, pocket tissues, husbands inhaler, hand cream) I really loved that about it however, the chain which is the only option to not holding it all night is terrible. I bought this clutch for a gala but the chain got stuck on my dress just the first time I tried it on. I wish there was another option so I don't have to hold it all night. The chain is really bad quality. It will shred my lace dress. Also the chain is super long. Like too long to actually wear on on side. Or it would fall off all the time. I am 5'9 and this chain to super long for me. You would have to wear it as a cross body- and that does not look nice with formal attire. Returning.

Looked Great with my shoes and dress
Color: Champagne, Color: Champagne
This is a true champagne color, as you can see in the picture my shoes were a slight rose champagne color. It still all went really great together. The bag is very soft, perfect size for the wedding, opened and closed securely, and looked high quality.

Elegant and affordable
Color: Black
I got this for a formal event and it was perfect. There were several colors to choose from, and it comes with a long chain option for over the shoulder if preferred. The quality is very good and the price was also fantastic. It fits a phone easily with room for a few more necessities. It feels very comfortable and durable. I'll be using it again for future events.

Perfect Navy Clutch!
Color: Navy
The Navy Blue clutch is really nice with a goldtone clasp and a really nice goldtone twisted rope chain that's detachable. The chain alone makes the purchase worth it to interchange onto other clutches that came with cheesy silver tone cheap-looking chains. It's roomy enough to hold your bulky cell phone, a small brush and some makeup plus a zip pocket for money (what's that?), ID, and credit cards. One of the best purchases I've ever made. Attractive and classy clutch!

Lovable clutch
Color: Navy, Color: Navy
Cute clutch for events. Took to a wedding, nice size, especially like that I could put my phone in it and plenty of room for a small wallet, lipsticks, and tissues/personal products. I wish the fabric were higher quality (has a sheen to it yet it is thin) but for the price it makes sense. I will only use for special occasions. Once aired out overnight, it had no smell. Very light in weight. It has a strap that would make it more comfortable to lug around, but I think I lost it? That is on me! I appreciate that it has a strap and a place for it to convert. Overall super happy and does the job! Carries everything I need for formal events. Photos show one with my hand and one with a lipstick in it for size reference. Other shows a thoughtfully placed zipper pocket that is convenient!
