Ali Millar was born into the Jehovah's Witnesses in a town in the Scottish Borders.

Growing up in a frightening, cloistered world, she started to question the ways of the Witnesses, and their control over the most intimate aspects of her life, finding herself tormented by one question: is it possible to escape the life you are born into?

Ali will be reading from The Last Days, her incredible memoir about life inside, and outside a religious movement.
