For over thirty years, she smiled through the pain. A devoted wife, a mother, a professional-and a prisoner of emotional, psychological, and covert domestic abuse. On the outside, she was the picture of resilience. Behind closed doors, she was slowly disappearing.
In The Big Dark, Pam shatters the silence with a breathtakingly raw and unflinchingly honest account of a life entangled with a man who wore the mask of a charming hero-and hid the soul of a manipulative narcissist. From love bombing to gaslighting, from military moves to isolation, from silent screams to loaded threats, this is the anatomy of a trauma bond-and the story of a woman who broke it.
Told with searing clarity, grace, and grit, The Big Dark is more than a memoir. It is a lifeline. A reckoning. A reclamation.
If you've ever questioned your reality, minimized your pain, or stayed silent to keep the peace-this book is for you.
You are not alone. You are not crazy. You are not broken. You are waking up.
