Sydney, 1994.

Sometimes the only way to survive is to run. And so I fled my toxic marriage for a weekend alone in Sydney-with no plan, just a desperate need to breathe and figure out how to leave for good.

Then I met him: a charismatic backpacker from Detroit who changed everything. As Mariah Carey's Dreamlover played on the radio, it felt like fate calling out.

But that weekend escape became the eye of a storm: love, betrayal, and theft by deception spiraling from Melbourne to Bondi Beach and Byron Bay to Kuala Lumpur, Dubai, and London. At its heart was an international pursuit of justice, involving detectives, the Australian Federal Police, and even Interpol.

Out of the wreckage, Jenster was born: fierce, defiant, relentless. She wasn't just an alter ego-she was my salvation.

Jenster is a raw memoir of betrayal, survival, and psychological manipulation-the fierce strength we discover when everything falls apart.

Perfect for readers drawn to memoirs of toxic relationships, narcissistic abuse survival, and true-crime deception.
