Publisher's summary

Escape was just the beginning.

Held captive for eight years, Lily has grown from a teenager to an adult in a small basement prison. Her daughter, Sky, has been a captive her whole life. But one day their captor leaves the dead bolt unlocked.

This is what happens next to Lily, to her twin sister, to her mother, to her daughter - and to her captor.

Amazing

This is one of those books that will stay with me forever. The voices reading the book are perfect, especially Lily and Abby! Amazingly written, amazing story, I couldn't stop listening!

Intense

This one had me actually tearing up while I listened. I love the different perspectives.

Amazing

One of the best stories i've ever read. It's suspenseful, with romance and surprises. All characters are relatable and I can guarantee it won't be a wasted credit.

Great first book

This book has driven me to write a letter to the author to express my enjoyment personally. It draws you in and won't let you go.

breathe taking

love it! going to listen again, to hear all the pieces that didnt make since in the start! great hands down

Has some good parts...

I found the middle pretty boring. The beginning and ending were good. I actually found it hard to finish...

One of the best books Ive read so far this year.

The writer seemed to know exactly what information to relay when. The pace was great. I was engrossed from start to finish. There was also a surprising twist at the end with the twin sister Abby. I haven't read Rooms but i saw the movie. this is a bit like Rooms after an escape. but with the main character having a twin, i. also really enjoyed hearing from the perpetrator, of the story. his point of view filled things out. it took me a while to like Abby, but i did by the end. also, great performance on the audiobook side of things.

riveting story, had great twists

loved the twins narrator voice. easy to listen too. she made you fell like you knew the twins or at least you wanted to befriend them.

An emotional journey

Any additional comments?

I like that this book jumped right into the action. From the first few lines I was captivated and scared for the lead character. The suspense eventually subsides and the story turns into a dramatic tale...but a very good one. While at times the story did drag out I liked that this book doesn't just end abruptly leaving you to guess or interpret how things turn out. The story goes well into the aftermath and also includes a lengthy epilog which gives the ready/listener complete closure. I like closure so I didn't mind the fact that this book continued more than an hour after where it could have ended.

captivating

loved it. it was too easy to fall in love with lily as a character and her story.
