Teri Jendusa never dreamed she would marry a violent, malignant narcissist like David Larsen. But she did. Why? Simple. Larsen cleverly concealed his true nature until the marriage vows were final. David, an eventual church council president and model citizen, rapidly began to morph into a monster and sociopath, telling Teri on their wedding day, â€œNow, I own you.â€

Beaten and Left For Dead is a book about extreme marital violence, dominant control and psychological torment through the mind of the out-of-control David Larsen. It's also about survival, faith and a motherâ€™s will to live for her childrenâ€™s sake...as she faces death, face to face.

This is an ideal book for womenâ€™s studies and book clubs as it looks inside a large womenâ€™s shelter, giving the reader a glimpse of a support network. The author also interviews a counselor who works with violent men with surprising results.

Teri Jendusa-Nicolai continues to crusade for womenâ€™s issues to this day and currently works with a Wisconsin commission on domestic violence.

EDITORIAL PRAISE
"Teri Jendusa-Nicolai's story is a powerful example of the horrific lengths of barbarism a man can go to when he considers a woman his personal property. And it is, equally, an inspiring, riveting story of a woman's courage and clear thinking under the absolute worst of conditions, and of her tenacious hold to life...I am so grateful to Teri Jendusa-Nicolai and to Dave Alfvin for getting this story out to us. Don't miss it."
--Lundy Bancroft, best-selling author on domestic violence, trainer, and activist on male violence against women

"This book is important because it gets our message out as to what we do to help abusers change their value systems."
--Maureen Manning-Rosenfeld, Clinical Professional Counselor
