*Leaving the Witness* by Amber Scorah. About leaving the Jehovah’s Witnesses.
*The Reluctant Apostate* by Lloyd Evans. Also about the JWs.
*Rainbow Milk* by Paul Mendez. Also JWs, but fiction.
*Educated* by Tara Westover. Not sure if this would count as a cult, but it was a high-control isolationist family situation.
*The Girls* by Emma Cline. Fiction based on (or inspired by) the Manson murders.

The most recent Cormorán Strike book is centered on this. But start at the beginning if you’re going to check it out, the character development in this series is just too good to pass by.
