From Little Stack
Lena and her two children live in a windowless shack in the woods. They follow the rules set by their captor, the father. They are observed, their meals, bathroom visits and study time are scheduled. He ‘protects’ his family from the dangers lurking in the outside world. But one day, Lena manages to break free, but what she isn’t free from is this whole nightmare. Her tormentor wants to get back what belongs to him.
This is one of the first books I remember everyone talking about on Bookstagram when I joined and it’s had so many incredible reviews since! It’s an intense, dark and downright terrifying read with plenty of shocking, disturbing moments to get lost in. The perfect read for fans of Room and Gone Girl.
A woman held captive finally escapes—but can she ever really get away? Gone Girl meets Room in this page-turning, #1 internationally bestselling thriller.
A windowless shack in the woods. A dash to safety. But when a woman finally escapes her captor, the end of the story is only the beginning of her nightmare.
She says her name is Lena. Lena, who disappeared without a trace 14 years prior. She fits the profile. She has the distinctive scar. But her family swears that she isn’t their Lena.
The little girl who escaped the woods with her knows things she isn’t sharing, and Lena’s devastated father is trying to piece together details that don’t quite fit. Lena is desperate to begin again, but something tells her that her tormentor still wants to get back what belongs to him…and that she may not be able to truly escape until the whole truth about what happened in the woods finally emerges.
Twisty, suspenseful, and psychologically clever, Romy Hausmann's Dear Child is a captivating thriller with all the ingredients of a breakout hit.
