Intelligently written and inspiring in it's insights Dec 12, 2006
Reflections in the Night is very difficult as the subject matter is so severe yet Mauri's intelligence and sense of humor make it more managable. It's unusual for one who has survived this to have such an intelligent perspective and awareness of their experiences. Mauri has gone to great lengths to provide detail and clarity in describing the ritual abuse she successfully endured.
While Reflections in the Night briefly touches on some of the more difficult (and horrific) aspects of mind control and ritual abuse, survivors and their allies will find validation in reading her story. It's inspirational to know that Mauri has successfully overcome the generational cycle of ritual abuse and in doing so, helped create a brighter future for us all.

A survivor speaks out Aug 01, 2006
Mauri was born in the post World War 2 era on Walpurgisnacht, the eve of May, one of two satanic holidays. She was a baby bartered away to Nazi Satanists by her parents for a house, a child intended for ritual abuse. Her story is grim,frightening to imagine, and yet Mauri is a survivor who shares her experiences with hope.
The author's repressed memories resurface in adulthood when she has a job and children of her own. Bizarre dreams about places she can't consciously remember and incidents that seem implausible haunt her sleep. A surreal world of memory fragments takes possession of her life. Place by place, she proves the churches, homes, and barn featured so prominently in her dreams actually exist. Is it possible that the ritual
sacrifices and sexual perversions she remembers are reality?
The truth can be more frightening than imagination. Photos hidden from prying eyes proved that Mauri was a kiddy porn princess. The satanic cult to which her parents belonged included men of power and influence in California, men who craved watching or participating in sex with children. Yes, she names names. As a young girl, she found safety in the sky and stars, comfort wrapped in the wings of a guardian angel. Heaven was her parents. As an adult, she found it difficult to believe that her fragile, ailing earthly parents were Nazi supporters and Satanists who willingly used their daughter as a pawn. But slowly and gradually, the awful truth is revealed. Their crimes were not limited to just one generation of helpless children.
This book is a lesson in dysfunction and denial, and the courage required to seek truth, regain personal power, and find healing. In addition to the truths she discovered, Mauri shares scientific explanations for mental rhythms, the effect of discord and lies, of magick and illusion by cults. Most of us will never know the life Mauri lived. Despite her hopeful outlook she believes biblical Armageddon exists now in the evils perpetrated by a select few. After reading her story, I tend to agree.
