On the day she was abducted, Annie O’Sullivan, a thirty-two year old realtor, had three goals - sell a house, forget about a recent argument with her mother, and be on time for dinner with her ever-patient boyfriend. The open house is slow, but when her last visitor pulls up in a van as she's about to leave, Annie thinks it just might be her lucky day after all.
Interwoven with the story of the year Annie spent as the captive of psychopath in a remote mountain cabin, which unfolds through sessions with her psychiatrist, is a second narrative recounting events following her escape - her struggle to piece her shattered life back together and the ongoing police investigation into the identity of her captor.
The truth doesn’t always set you free.
"Starred Review. While there is physical danger in what Annie experiences, the suspense is in her psychological struggle....While this may be a stretch, the 'what would I do' aspect of the reading experience may make this a match for some Jodi Picoult readers as well. Highly recommended." - Library Journal
"Starred Review. Stevens’s impressive debut, a thriller set on Vancouver Island, pulsates with suspense that gets a power boost from the jaw-dropping but credible closing twist." - Publishers Weekly
"Starred Review. A grueling, gripping demonstration of melodrama’s darker side." - Kirkus Reviews
"Starred Review...a knockout, a psychological thriller that pulls no punches and has a title that couldn’t be more apt." - Booklist
