He is her husband. She is his captive.

Her husband calls her Jane. That is not her name.

She lives in a small farm cottage, surrounded by vast, open fields. Everywhere she looks, there is space. But she is trapped. No one knows how she got to the UK: no one knows she is there. Visitors rarely come to the farm; if they do, she is never seen.

Her husband records her every movement during the day. If he doesn't like what he sees, she is punished.

For a long time, escape seemed impossible. But now, something has changed. She has a reason to live and a reason to fight. Now, she is watching him, and waiting . . .

Emotional

Wirklich eine klaustrophobische Geschichte. Man konnte sich gut in Than reinversetzen. So viel Trauma und man hat alles mitgefühlt. Das Ende ging mir im Nachgang etwas zu schnell und man hat sich die ganze Zeit gedacht „was machst du da mensch“. Ich hätte es gerne etwas anders gehabt aber letztendlich war auch ganz gut. Ich habe mir Lenns Akzent bloß nie als Englisch vorstellen können, in meinem Kopf hatte er einen Südstaaten Akzent

Konnte es nicht weglegen!

Richtig gut, habe durchgehend mitgefiebert. Herzzerreißend brutal, man wird mitten in die Geschichte geworfen, aber genau das macht das Buch so gut. Keine Seite zu lang, keine zu kurz :)

4.5. I loved this. I didn’t go the full 5 because I had just a couple questions at the end.
