Kimberly Mark filed suit against Laura Davis, the author of a book she read, The Courage to Heal Workbook, claiming that the book falsely induced her to believe that she had once been molested. Specifically, she claimed that after reading the book, she came to believe that she had four hundred personalities and that she had suffered Satanic ritual abuse at the hands of her father and others, causing her to falsely accuse innocent people of abusing her.
