HOW THE CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY TRIED TO DESTROY THE WOMAN WHO DARED TO INVESTIGATE IT - AS FEATURED ON LEAH REMINI: SCIENTOLOGY AND THE AFTERMATH
'One of the most remarkable and unlikely narratives in the sprawling field of Scientology exposés...compulsively readable' The A.V. Club
In 1971 Paulette Cooper wrote a scathing book about the Church of Scientology. Desperate to shut the book down, Scientology unleashed on her one of the most sinister personal campaigns the free world has ever known.
For years, Paulette was harassed, stalked, followed and sued. She had people sent undercover to befriend her, was entrapped by private investigators in the pay of Scientology, and was even framed as an alleged mailer of bomb threats. Her life was ruined, and she was driven to the brink of suicide.
The story of Paulette's terrifying ordeal is told in full for the first time in THE UNBREAKABLE MISS LOVELY. It reveals the shocking details of the darkest chapter in Scientology's checkered history, which ended with senior members in prison, and the organization's reputation permanently damaged.
