Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher and author for the opportunity to read and review this book.
This is promoted as a thriller but it's really more of a family drama - one starring a couple pulled-from-the-headlines plots. The story begins when Lily, held captive in a cabin basement for years, escapes with the child fathered by her kidnapper. We never learn too much about what happened in the cabin, other than that there were "training periods" where her captor broke her into behaving the way he wanted.
Most of the story is what happens when Lily is reunited with her family - her twin sister, Abby, her mother, Eve, and her boyfriend at the time of the kidnapping, Wes. I was intrigued enough to keep reading to find out what happened and thought it was a good story - it just wasn't the thriller that it could/should have been.
