Description

A page-turning, gripping, harrowing story of abuse, privilege and trauma written by leading, highly regarded psychotherapist Valerie Sinason. 

It's Christmas Eve, and a young woman with Down's syndrome has just disclosed abuse by two men. The problem is she is a member of the British aristocracy and the men she accuses are a top politician and a rock star. How does a national health team struggle with the situation of alleged abuse by the elite and super rich? Despite a traitor in their midst, the team uncovers the appalling reality of the abusive international cult known as The Orpheus Project with its mysterious American spokesperson and powerful connections. This is the world of conspiracy theories; the Orpheus Project and the secret society that surrounds it seek to offer a form of immortality through deliberately installed dissociative disorders.

At the core of this powerful novel is the story of a mother and daughter who find a way of reuniting, and the long-term consequences of childhood trauma.

Advance Praise

https://www.abuseadvice4survivors.co.uk/the-orpheus-project-by-dr-valerie-sinason-a-review/ 

"The book is a real insight into the shocking and, at times, unbelievable world of ritual and satanic abuse. It gets important messages across through the use of fiction and hammers home the way in which the rich and powerful can use their influence to get away with murder, literally. A very clever use of the medium of the novel to highlight conflict within professionals and cover-ups at the highest level."

"Valerie Sinason is the accomplished author behind The Orpheus Project. A gripping exploration into love, trauma, abuse, privilege and conspiracy, Valerie taps into forty years’ worth of therapeutic experience to paint a tale that is as gripping as it is potent.

Political intrigue, secret societies, cover ups, twisting the true story. Reading this work of fiction I could easily accept it was real life. as those in power race to twist the revealed historical sexual abuse for their own purpose and protection. It raises questions about power, who has it and how do we protect the vulnerable. Thank you to Literally PR and NetGalley for the ARC. The views expressed are all mine, freely given.
