Brides of Eden

In this story based on true events, sixteen-year-old Eva and her female friends become obsessed with a charismatic young man who comes to Corvallis, Oregon, in 1904, claiming to be a Christian prophet.

First sentence: WE STARTED OUT GOOD GIRLS, you see, and if at our meetings there was a handsome, well-spoken young man, likewise concerned with the improvement of his spiritual life, well, who was to find anything amiss in that?
