About this eBook

An incredible psychological crime thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat from the Top Ten Sunday Times bestselling author

‘This is creepy storytelling of the highest order: spine-chilling and difficult to put down’ Daily Mail

A race against time to save her child...

In seven days, Maggie’s son, Max, turns three. But she’s not planning a party or buying presents or updating his baby book. She’s dreading it. Because in her world, third birthdays are the days on which the unthinkable happens... she loses her child.

For the last twelve years Maggie has been imprisoned in a basement. Abducted aged fifteen, she gave birth to two sons before Max, and on their third birthdays her captor came and took them from her.

She cannot let it happen again. But she has no idea how to stop it. And the clock is ticking...

Oh my this book has you hooked from the first page until the very end. Great story, the descriptions are very realistic and it has you thinking how you would cope in certain situations described. I'm really looking forward to reading more by this author.

This amazing read has brought out of me, so many different emotions. I never knew I could feel so much loathing for a man I have never met, or such a strong connection to a woman who would risk everything to keep her child safe.
