Nothing was broken.
No one was hitting her.
But something was very, very wrong.
From the outside, Danielle Hart’s life looked perfect.
Inside her marriage, reality was slowly unraveling.
Conversations changed after they happened.
Facts dissolved.
Love turned into something cold, unpredictable, and impossible to name.
With three children watching, Danielle must decide:
Stay and keep the family intact — or leave and risk losing everything.
There are no dramatic rescues.
Only sleepless nights, children’s questions she cannot answer, and the crushing realization that the person she trusted most has become a stranger.
Then comes the true catastrophe:
Plant medicine gone sideways.
Abandonment.
Silence.
And a life that must be rebuilt from fragments.
Pinprick Eyes is a searing memoir of psychological abuse, maternal survival, and what it costs to protect your children when the danger is invisible.
Brutally honest, deeply intimate, and impossible to put down.
For readers who were shaken by Educated or moved by stories of women reclaiming their lives from coercive control.
