This book entirely centre's around Charles Manson's cult called "The Family" and the famous murders they committed in 1969. There's a lot of uncomfortable sexual content described by former cult members and of course the members were experiencing brain washing at Manson's hands. I didn't think gaslighting is the correct way of describing it as it's far deeper than that.
