This book details the victimization of Cathy O'Brien and her daughter, Kelly, under the CIA MK-ULTRA mind control program. The details are gut wrenching. They were eventually rescued by Mark Phillips, a man with a big heart, willing to take on anything, and willing to give up everything, for the sake of rescuing Cathy and Kelly. The story is not finished because justice has evaded them, courtesy of our rogue justice system. Mark and Cathy are labelled "the walking dead", since the book reveals many prominent politicians, members of our entertainment industry, members of our religious community, etc., who were participants in the victimization of Cathy and Kelly. I read more than most people I know, so by the time I got to this book, I had no qualms believing everything. I was at work when someone asked me what was wrong with me, and my reply was, "I am reading one of the most depressing books I have ever read...". It riled up my entire being. It was difficult not to shed tears. I resented the detractors of Mark and Cathy, yet I would not wish on them what Mark, Cathy and Kelly went through. My hope is that they will have their respite in the near future since more and more of the truths are coming out about our lives. More and more people are waking up. This book may not be for someone who is just starting to search for the truth about our lives, but then again, it may fuel one's fire. Anyone questioning the veracity of the claims in this book should take the time to read all the whistle-blower interviews on the website "Project Camelot". Read the revelations from people who have nothing to gain by exposing themselves to possible retaliation from the negative cabal and this does not exclude bodily harm and death. Start with the three-part interview of Dr. Pete Peterson, Dr. Arthur Newman and John Lear. If you think Trance Formation is mind-blowing, here is more of it, a lot more.I make it a habit to read a few hours everyday. I finish an average of 65-70 books a year. I spend a lot of money buying books. I read with complete abandon. It is the only way to find out the truth. Once you start discriminating against any source of information, you severely handicap yourself. You have to look at everyone's side of the story. My personal observation is that the ones that balk at believing information such as this have not done a lot of reading/research. In the very beginning, I was experiencing a lot of shock and awe. That was my initial naivete. Years down the line, I would not even know where to begin to start explaining what our reality really is. It is too complicated to explain in one full sweep. I had to learn to stop reacting to the ignorance of the general public which I found very disturbing. The religious, especially, irritated the hell out of me. I am sure they do not even know where they are coming from or going. They only think they know.

A report written to anyone who would or would not listen. Cathy O'Brien contacted and revealed this history which was published for all the world to read, review, analyze, to apply our critical thinking skills, to apply logic, intuition, to research further the contents. Is it a true story? How might we know the truth of it when our government under the "national security act" refuses to release documents? After Cathy O'Brien spoke, wrote and testified to anyone who would listen and named names including: George Bush Sr, Dick Cheney, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, Hilary Clinton, Jerry Ford, Senator Robert Byrd, George Bush, Jr., Bill Bennett, Secretary of Education, William Casey, US Attorney General Dick Thornburgh, Senator Arlen Spector, Lt. Col. Michael Aquino (Army intelligence and the head of the Temple of Set), Manual Noriega, Saudi King Fahd and Haiti's Baby Doc to name a few of the players, NONE of them has sued Cathy O'Brien for libel or slander. NONE. Why? Because then Cathy O'Brien would be able to depose them, they'd have to sit down and face her across a conference room table; they'd be under oath to tell the truth, it would also lead to getting documents she hasn't been able to get due to the "1947 national security act". Remember what caused Michael Jackson to settle? His penis, very clear descriptions of his penis. Cathy has clear descriptions of penises as well including Senator Byrd and Dick Cheney. In the Franklin Scandal case in Omaha, Nebraska Larry King (who ran the pedophile, pandering, drug network where Bush's name also comes up) started to engage in court action against one of the kids who spoke up, who told the truth, but when King got the subpoena to be deposed King dropped his appeal. The judge ruled that the kid had told the truth. Out of the Franklin Scandal in the early 1990s, in 1995 President Bill Clinton acknowledged and apologized about MKULTRA type programs. That can be easily Googled on Youtube to verify. This book then, this testifying about her life in the Project Monarch Program starts with an element of validity and reliability. For the horrendous torture she and the her daughter Kelly underwent Cathy O'Brien's book is not emotionally charged, it is not a freak out book, it is not a savagely lashing out story, it is told from a person who has healed from that which did not kill her. There is something powerful about love and logic that makes the book a triumph of the human spirit. These "leaders" of ours are as debased and horrifying as the bureaucratic leaders of Germany in the 1930s and 1940s. What you fear you become. In bringing over Germans who had run Germany in that era our government folks planted a bad seed in America. Intentionally or unintentionally, it doesn't matter, it got planted and it grew like a poisonous weed. Time to weed that garden. Cathy O'Brien's reporting helped me for the first time to understand how mind control and fragmenting the mind works. We remember where we were when Kennedy was killed. We remember where we were when 9/11 happened. That's a traumatized compartmentalized memory. A child so much more traumatized than that will have that memory "locked" away. These men with Lt. Col. Michael Aquino leading the way produced such terror that Cathy ended up with a plethora of these memory compartments. In healing through her logical, thinking brain not her traumatized emotional self she has then a photographic memory of all that happened thus the detail in her "telling" and such thorough descriptive details in surroundings and witnessing is captured visually in the written word in this book. Of all the horrors Dick Cheney is one of the most horror of horrors particularly in playing "The Most Dangerous Game". After reading that I went back and looked up that 2006 shooting incident he had in Texas and wonder if that was an accident? Dick Cheney is a very angry man. Cheney never apologized to the guy. Lt. Col. Michael Aquino's history is well documented as an Army Intelligence officer and now a general with the NSA. In costume, dressed as Satan these moments and interviews are easy to Google and he was particularly involved in creating trauma in Cathy O'Brien to do all the things she ultimately was programmed to participate in. Aquino's history involving allegations of sexual abuse of children through the Presido day care is well documented. Copies of those police records are available to review. One child identified him as "Mikey". Some of the kids in the Franklin coverup also knew him as "Mikey". It doesn't take much research effort to connect Cathy O'Brien's testimony and witnessing in her book to find information that backs up pieces of her story. We can go further and this is where Americans can simply turn the tide without violence or revenge on these men who simply lack a spirit and a soul. Inside they really are broken sad men. We can simply say no more secrets, get rid of the 1947 national security act and say to our government "you will hand over the truth". From the book NAFTA was nothing more than opening up the drug trade for the CIA, the drug war nothing more than getting rid of the CIA's drug rivals out of Mexico. Senior Bush drug was heroin and Bill Clinton's was cocaine. NAFTA never made any sense to me, now it does. Why would these men do such beyond the pale, horrible, torturous actions against children? All such people who act this way have been tortured, violated, humiliated themselves as children. My guess about Aquino is the children knew him as "Mikey" because that's the kid in him who got hurt when he was a little baby, a little boy and that's why he ended up doing the same acts to children later in his life. Cathy O'Brien's story of bravery and her ability to love to think clearly and to speak directly makes this an empowering book. Be not afraid. Let the healing begin. The book is a good start.

Although published in 1995, about three decades ago, it makes one understand better why there is a stigma attached to mental illness. Even today, I believe, the private/everyday psychiatry practitioner does not know about the advances government has made in researching the mind.

I suspected there were things that didn't make sense from a very young age. The information in this book explains a lot!

The idea that this poor woman is identified online as a “conspiracy theorist” is laughable. Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell were most likely trained in mind control. Do people believe they were the only ones out there doing that to children? The fact that the government will acknowledge Epstein and MK ultra as fact, but discredit this woman is beyond transparent to me. The government admitted (during Covid lock downs when everyone was very preoccupied ) that we have air craft “not from this world” - if people can believe that and not this, it’s simply picking and choosing what you want/need to believe. Aliens are fun, this is not fun. It doesn’t create movies or toys, it’s not exciting, it’s devastating.

It was the most informative book I’ve read next to the Bible. The author should be on every talk show and pod cast. She puts faces to “they” that are traitors to the union.

This rabbit hole isn’t for everyone. Inquiring minds want to know. This is the book for you.
