After two long years of beatings at the hands of Carl Jameson, followed by the obligatory apologies and tears, Cassandra Hunt knows enough is enough. It's time. There is someone else to think about now– the tiny life doing its best to grow inside her while she hides the bruises. Finally, with the help of one of Carl's friends, leaving is possible. Can Cass execute her plan in time? Can she and her unborn child claw their way to safety before Carl finds out? Can she really escape?
