From Library Journal Unlike Betty J. Eadie and other near-deathers who have written best-selling accounts of their close calls， Fenimore did not experience an epiphany when her heart stopped. Here， she tells of her brief， hellish tour of you-know-where.Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information， Inc. Midwest Book Review In 1991 the author， a wife and mother， decided to take her own life in the hopes of finding peace.
