When Oakley is forced to face someone from her past, can she hold her secret in any longer?


Opinion:

"Silence was my prison"

Must read for psychological thriller fans. Author portrayed the struggles and Traumatic experiences Oakley endures during her captivity. In this book, it's evident that Oakley is haunted by her past and struggles with nightmares and trsut issues. It clearly shows how her abduction have an long lasting impact on her. The writing style is so good that it keeps me hooked right from the very start.
