Carolyn ShantiCarolyn Shanti is the author of 'Trap, Prey, Lust'. The novel is based on the true story of her own childhood, where she was brought up in a wealthy and privileged family in England. A secluded and idyllic mansion, surrounded by acres of private proprty, was where she spent her childhood years. It was also a place of dark shadows and sexual secrets. Her father, a prominent businessman in the fashion industry, was a member of a well-known occult society. As a young child, Carolyn suffered ritual sexual abuse and was raped, not only by her own father but by members of the society. She was `groomed', and the use of mind control techniques were put in place to work against her remembering the abuse or the perpetrators of these acts of violence. It was on a trip to India in 2013 that she started to have memories of the abuse. She was so unwell that she sought the help of Dr Rajan Sankaran, a renowned holistic physician, homeopath and international speaker. In gratitude for his help, she has dedicated her book to him. For four years, she was under his care at his clinic in Mumbai and has now almost completed her healing. It has been a long and arduous journey. In 'Trap, Prey, Lust', she has narrated her own story of childhood abuse in the form of fiction. Her wish in publishing this book is to demonstrate the seriousness of the issues that we face in the sexual abuse of women and children, the cults and secret societies that support these crimes, and the cultures that often condone these practices.
