Annie O'Sullivan is your regular, modern-day woman. She has a boyfriend, her own house and dog, and works as a realtor. Unfortunately, her wonderful job is what gets her in trouble. While trying to sell an important house to a seemingly nice and rich man, she is kidnapped by him. After being drugged she wakes up on a bed in a cabin with absolutely no open doors, windows, or even any cracks. There are no weapons or any means of escape. She is horrifed, as anyone would be, and soon learns the rules of her kidnapper, aka The Freak.
The sequence of the chapters in the novel starts and ends with Annie talking to her shrink, and the middle are her experiences with The Freak. You learn more of what she went through and what her lfe is like now- her relationships, eating habits, and peeing schedule(no lie). But most importnatly, you learn the true nature of her kidnapping.
Chevy Steven's writing is great- you feel the character's emotions but also made it light and comical at times. I was so emotional the whole time I was reading this. Annie's emotions were so real and all over the place the entire book, and mine followed suit. The only itsy bitsy problem I, a perfectionist, had with this book was the end. Everything up until the felt realistic- like it could happen to anyone. I mean, what does happen at the end technically could but it just changed the book for me a little bit.
