Summary

A serial rapist is kidnapping teenage girls. But he’s not interested in just any teenage girls - only virgins. He hunts them by following their status updates and check-ins on social media. Once he’s captured them, they’re locked away in his sound-proof basement until they’re groomed and ready. He throws them away like pieces of trash after he’s stolen their innocence. Nobody escapes alive.

Until Ella.

Ella risks it all to escape, setting herself and the other girls free. But only Sarah - the girl who's been held captive the longest - gets out with her. Both girls are hospitalized and surrounded by FBI agents who will stop at nothing to find the man responsible. Ella and Sarah are the key to their investigation, but Sarah’s hiding something, and it isn’t long before Ella discovers her nightmare is far from over.

Pacing issues

Not a bad way to will away the time but the pacing is off.
Ella was well written and performed but Sarah was robotic and acted like a cartoon supervillain, which might have worked if we didn’t have her internal monologue to know that it wasn’t just Ella’s bias/trauma skewing it.

Totally gripping….

Initially the performance felt robotic, until I realised that this was purposefully done to enhance the story….brilliant!

A fabulous story, one of the best I’ve listened to in a while! Top marks!

A harrowing read

interesting story about a psychopath who kidnaps girls, keeps them prisoner & kills them when they are no longer useful. Features of Stockholm syndrome by Sarah/Petra.
I found the narration annoying if I'm honest. The tone/accent was irritating.

A formulaic story which felt rushed. Awful narration. Not a patch on the authors other wirh
