Dr Beth Nichols thinks she has been held captive by Edwin Evans for about 8 or 9 years now.
Amidst her grief, she often looks back and thinks about her fiancé Liam.
She lies awake at night staring at the one light bulb that is never switched off and prays that Liam is still out there somewhere searching for her.
Our Review
This is an incredibly sad yet powerful, well-written story.
One that will shred your nerves and try repeatedly to break your heart.
Most of us couldn’t begin to imagine what happens to Beth, or how she manages to cope with it all and remain sane.
I don’t think I would have, for simply reading this story has left scars on my emotions. You keep telling yourself it is fiction and didn’t really happen, but we know only too well that it does. This story is probably far too close to the truth than is comfortable. The characters and their suffering are devastatingly real, made all the more so because we know situations like this have happened to people just like Beth and her daughter.
This story reminds us that this world can be cruel and disturbing, but that we can somehow survive and rise above the despair if we can keep love in our hearts…
