About This Book
One bad decision leads to consequences that Lila couldn't begin to fathom.
It was just a tube of lipstick. Lila didn't think too much about it when she slipped it into her pocket at the mall. When a man grabbed her arm and accused her of shoplifting, her only thought was for the trouble she was going to be in with her parents over one stupid impulse.
But then she woke up chained to the wall in a
dank, dark cellar.
In growing panic, she begins to understand the hell her world has just become.
Soon she won't be the only one imprisoned in that cellar... but is that a good thing? Or will it just make everything worse? Can Lila survive the abuse and the torture? Will the other girls be strong enough to survive what Lila has already lived through?
Reviews:
...The author took what I knew about psychological thrillers and killed it, with excellent writing, story pacing, and character portrayal...
...The story is a simple one - a young woman is kidnapped by a madman and kept prisoner in a basement for a year. The ensuing chain of events is simultaneously predictable, surprising, logical and warped enough to keep the reader enthralled...The story is eminently dark (how could it be anything else?) but surprisingly, it left me filled with the power of hope, friendship, loyalty, and life. It's a remarkable story that should not be missed...
