In 1992, Ruth Ann had finally found the strength to demand a divorce, but she conceded to her husband's opposition and agreed to a property settlement, formalized in a document which he wrote and they both signed. After a close loss in her 1994 US Senate bid due to her opponent's last minute sleazy lies, Barry was furious and blamed Ruth Ann for the loss. By 1997, going well beyond his lawyer's instructions to "taunt your wife into submission," his intensified drug pushing, combined with physical, emotional, and mental abuse, shattered her. After threatening to kill her, encouraging her to commit suicide, and taunting her with his mistress in a very public affair, his abuse became too much for her, she crumbled and experienced a psychotic break. Now, in the midst of a hot affair, he didn't want to fulfill their settlement agreement. So he devised a campaign to kill her. She was to be sacrificed to his vengeful, greedy, abusive, egotistical and evil designs.

Against the backdrop of the tumultuous 1960’s, Jeff Goldstein was forced to embark on an emotional journey searching for sanctuary from a cycle of physical, verbal and mental abuse. This engrossing memoir captures the exuberance of a young boy playing on the streets of Brooklyn, running through the ocean breezes of Long Island, and then being inexorably drawn into the dark shadows of abuse after the unexpected death of his beloved sister. Jeff, even while trapped in a personal hell that was hidden from his teachers and friends, was able to display the tenacity and persistence to rise above his circumstances. Guided by unforgettable characters who became role models, and becoming open to new, enlightening ideas, he formed a positive personal vision that enabled him to navigate past the adversity. Jeff shares the innermost thoughts of an adolescent boy as he triumphantly escapes the undertow.
