Synopsis

You're not going home. You're not going anywhere. You're mine now.

Growing up in a deeply troubled family, fifteen-year-old Anna felt lost and alone in the world. So when a friendly taxi driver befriended her, Anna welcomed the attention, and agreed to go home with him to meet his family. She wouldn't escape for over a decade.

Held captive by a sadistic pedophile, Anna was subjected to despicable levels of sexual abuse and torture. The unrelenting violence and degradation resulted in numerous miscarriages, and the birth of four babies . . . each one stolen away from Anna at birth.

Her salvation arrived thirteen years too late, but despite her shattered mind and body, Anna finally managed to flee. This is her harrowing, yet uplifting, true story of survival.

Contains mature themes.

Goodreads review by Samah

I really want to give this book a one star for the ending, but I cannot just ignore what happened to her throughout the 13 years of her captivity (if this is really what happened and not a made-up story or exaggerated) I just cannot believe she didn’t report on Malik or the whole family! I would hav......more
