"By the bestselling author of A Beautiful, Terrible Thing, a haunting thriller about a mother and daughter who need to draw strength from each other when they find themselves trapped in a cabin with a man who wants to either control them--or kill them"--, Provided by publisherAnne meets the man of her dreams right out of college. But after they get married, Anne notices that Ethan begins acting differently. Ten years later, Anne and her twelve-year-old daughter, Thea, are safely living in Vermont. Anne is a successful therapist, Thea has friends at her new school, and they receive love and support from Anne's mom, Rose. When Thea takes to brooding and showing classic signs of teen angst, a trip for the three women to the White Mountains of New Hampshire seems like the perfect chance to bond. A man follows the three women on a hike at a nature reserve and drags them at gunpoint to an abandoned cabin in the woods. It isn't clear what he wants from them, but it is increasingly clear that they won't all get out of the cabin alive. -- adapted from jacket
