A kidnapped girl survived twelve nightmarish years.
Now she's safely back home . . . or is she?

Twelve years later, she's miraculously returned home after escaping her kidnappers—but as her parents and older brother welcome her back, the questions begin to mount. Where has she been all these years? Why is she back now? And is home really the safest place for her . . . or for any of them?

Ratings and reviews

This book was nuts. But mostly in a good way. I will say some of it was hard to listen to. Kind of wish there was a *trigger warning* before certain pages. It will bring you back and forth with this is the bad guy, no this one, no it's them.. my husband thought the back and forth was too much and ridiculous but for me it was a nice change from being able to pin it from the beginning. Overall it was good.
