Molly Salans discusses “A Break in the Fog” at the Capitola Branch Library
Sunday 2pm, April 12
Join writer, poet, and Grief and Creative psychotherapist Guide Molly Salans discussing her award winning novel, A Break in the Fog.
Prior to pursuing her education in counseling and social work, Molly was a member of a prominent cult for seven years. Though she left in 1982, her experiences as part of the group haunted her, leading her to write her newest book, a psychological fiction novel titled A Break in the Fog.

A family in turmoil, a dangerous cult, and God at the center of it all, A Break in the Fog is a psychological fiction book that explores how faith can be used to heal, but also to abuse and how family is all that matters in the end.

With her mother dead, her sister Wendy addicted to drugs, and her father condemning her every decision, Clara Greenwood shoulders the weight of all her dysfunctional family’s problems. Desperate for a way out, she is reluctantly goaded into attending a meeting for a secret school, The Ancient Side of Ideas. She is quickly swept up in the cult, however, when she meets the charismatic Damien – one of its teachers. His charm and good looks melt her skepticisms away, convincing her to give up everything in her old life. But when Clara finds herself in too deep, can she find her way out before it’s too late?

About Molly

Her love of literature and deep spirituality eventually brought Molly to earn her M.Ed. from Cambridge College in 1989. She then went on to obtain her license in Marriage and Family Therapy from the Kantor Family Institute in 1991 and a license in Social Work from Boston University School of Social Work in 1995. Her first book, Storytelling with Children in Crisis, is based on her social work experience in home-based crisis intervention.
