I only try on one of Nina’s pristine white dresses once. Just to see what it’s like. But she soon finds out...and by the time I realize my attic bedroom door only locks from the outside, it’s far too late. But I reassure myself: The Winchesters don’t know who I really am. They don’t know what I’m capable of....

So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons in the sand.

Story
By the time I realized the truth about Daniel, it was too late. But the truth about me? He never saw that coming.... Dr. Daniel Ashcroft was perfect: handsome, romantic, protective. I thought I was so lucky. But then I heard the rumors about his previous girlfriend, that she had vanished without a trace. That’s when I found the cameras in my apartment. I was trapped. Daniel made it clear I couldn’t leave him, not without risking everyone I loved. I had to disappear, so I arranged my own kidnapping. I should have known Daniel would never let me get away that easily.

True-crime writer Wylie Lark doesn’t mind being snowed in at the isolated farmhouse where she’s retreated to write her new book. A cozy fire, complete silence. It would be perfect, if not for the fact that decades earlier, at this very house, two people were murdered in cold blood and a girl disappeared without a trace. As the storm worsens, Wylie finds herself trapped inside the house, haunted by the secrets contained within its walls - haunted by secrets of her own. Then she discovers a small child in the snow just outside.

Publisher's Summary
“Immediate, intense, gripping, taut, terrifying, moving, and brilliant.” (Lisa Jewell, number one New York Times best-selling author of Invisible Girl)
“Brilliantly written...terrifying.” (Ruth Ware, number one New York Times best-selling author of One by One)
A woman being held captive is willing to risk everything to save herself, her unborn child, and her captor’s latest victim in this “intense, dark, and utterly chilling” (Jennifer Hillier, author of Jar of Hearts) thriller in the tradition of Misery and Room.
He is her husband. She is his captive.
Her husband calls her Jane. That is not her name.
She lives in a small farm cottage, surrounded by vast, open fields. Everywhere she looks, there is space. But she is trapped. No one knows she is there. Visitors rarely come to the farm; if they do, she is never seen.
Her husband records her every movement during the day. If he doesn’t like what he sees, she is punished.
For a long time, escape seemed impossible. But now, something has changed. She has a reason to live and a reason to fight. Now, she is watching him, and waiting....

Amazing, terrifying read
The human spirit is an amazing thing; full of wonder and respect. And what people are capable of, whether fighting for life, or abusing others, is no less than heart-stomping.
Jane believes she is heading toward a better life, leaving Vietnam, and heading to the UK. Crossing in boats and trucks is a long, arduous process. But where and what she ends up with is what nightmares are made of.
She is held captive by a hog farmer, who considers her his wife, bought and paid for. Her life is dehumanized, she is beaten, tortured and maimed. Yet her so-called life goes on.
There are things beyond her control and one of these situations change her life in an instant. And here the pathway narrows, so it is barely seen.
This is an awesome read. I love the writing that lulled me in deeper. It’s a poignant story, outlining the best and worst in the world. And here my friends is where I leave you.
This is a not-to be-missed book, providing you can handle physical and emotional abuse.

You won't be able to tear yourself away from this
If you would like something that will not afford you the opportunity to put down the book, that forces you to turn the page and leaves you restless and uneasy every time you escape its grasp then this is the book for you! One of the best psychological thrillers I've read in years!

At first, a world of pain I wasn't sure I wanted to put myself through. But, it was so well written and I loved the author's previous novels so I stuck with it and then couldn't stop! The narration sounded like it was being LIVED, not read. Powerful experience!

Fasten your seatbelts
Almost read this gothic thriller in one day. Think Misery meets Sleeping With the Enemy or Flowers in the Attic minus the incest. I was pretty much gasping from the start, could not put it down even as sections seemed a bit operatic, and was completely invested in the characters. What a heroine, what a villain!! Sarah Lam gives a tour de force performance. Well worth the credit.
