SOLVED. YA Mystery book-Two girls getting rescued after many years in captivity [s]

[Nikhil]

I read a preview of this book last year. Two girls, after many years in captivity gets rescued by FBI?.. They try to have a life.. something like that. Sorry that's all I remember.

There was a case in Cleveland, Ohio I vaguely recall hearing about. Not sure if the FBI was involved though.

Was your book fiction, Nikhil?

[Ann aka Iftcan]

In the case in Cleveland the women managed to free themselves after many years in captivity (and there were 3 of them.) No FBI involved in it, just the local police after the women made their escape. He later killed himself in jail. There was a man who heard the women yelling for help and managed to help them break down the outside door after they'd freed themselves.

I do know that 2 of the women were going to write a book together about their time in captivity and afterwards. But I have no idea when it was scheduled to be published.

Wiki page on this event https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariel_C... at the bottom there is mention of books about the case, so I guess you could check those out too.

It had been published. I think its only two women in the book.

Here's another guess:

A Stolen Life about the Jacee Lee Dugard case.
She also had a daughter by this time so that would make 2 survivors rescued.

Nikhil, you mentioned YA Mystery, so it's definitely fiction?

Were the two girls abducted by an estranged parent - e.g., If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch?

Are they sisters, twins, friends or strangers?

Does most of the story take place after their rescue - when they're teenagers?

Are they..."

I think this is the book. Thanks
