<p class=\u00a0\u00bbBasicParagraph\u00a0\u00bb style=\u00a0\u00bbMARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt\u00a0\u00bb>Helena Douglas is a survivor. For three months, two weeks, and five days, a madman held her captive, but she escaped. Barely alive and mentally exhausted, she finds the strength to put one foot in front of the other until she is rescued. For the next days, months, and years, Helena fights to regain her life, such as it is. Before this ordeal, she was already running from a previous life filled with heartache and pain, and now she must overcome an ordeal so horrific she still can’t talk about it, because there\u2019s one piece of Helena’s story that isn\u2019t finished\u2014her abductor has never been caught.<br \/><br \/>She\u2019s certain he’s out there, waiting and watching for the perfect moment to pick up where he left off with her. Eight years later, that moment has arrived. A body has been found, and the DNA doesn’t lie. He’s back, and now Helena, along with her confidant, David Campbell, has the chance to stop him.<br \/><br \/>But there’s a catch.<br \/><br \/>The evidence is leading Helena back to Deer Lake, the town where her life started to unravel and the place she vowed never to return. Going home brings a flood of memories, most of which she’d just as soon forget, but after all these years, she’s learning things weren\u2019t exactly as they seemed back then. Sorting through the past and discovering new truths has Helena wondering if a bargain she made with God years ago is the reason behind every horrible thing that has happened since.<br \/><br \/>The answer to that question means confronting her former best friend, a girl she hasn’t spoken to in nearly ten years, and for good reason. The stakes keep rising\u2014Helena and David are running out of time, and answers, and someone else is watching their every move.<?xml:namespace prefix=\u00a0\u00bbo\u00a0\u00bb ns=\u00a0\u00bburn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\u00a0\u00bb \/><o:p><\/o:p><\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
