Stolen Youth: Inside the Cult at Sarah Lawrence

Eight sophomores arrive at college to find the dad of a student on their dorm-step: ex-con Larry Ray; before long, Ray becomes their ninth roommate and lures them into a dangerous cult.

As the students fall deeper under Larry's spell, they follow him to New York City, where he co-opts an apartment uptown; as Larry grows more controlling and even violent, the students' realities are up-ended.

After Larry is evicted, the cult relocates to New Jersey, where Larry commits his most hideous crimes yet; when he is finally arrested, the two women closest to him choose disparate paths to survive.
