She thinks it's temporary. Just until the system finds a better option. But then a figure from her past resurfaces—the one she thought she'd escaped for good. He's watching. Waiting.

But what if it was the only way to protect her children? So she let them go. Now the past is circling back. One of the children she gave up is standing on her doorstep. And with her return come the questions Sally has tried her whole life not to answer.

At first, she blames her unease on nerves, on guilt, on the pressure of raising her young daughter alone. But something about the second girl isn't right. The way she watches. The stories that don't add up. The way even the dog keeps his distance. Then a man from the past reappears—someone with ties to terrible things. And suddenly, Cynthia's fragile home doesn't feel safe anymore.

Elizabeth thought she'd planned for everything. Her son's seizure disorder meant constant routines, strict safeguards, unbreakable structure.

She throws herself into the moving car, but that's only the beginning of the nightmare. As hours stretch into days, they're held captive in a remote house—cut off from everyone. No phone.
