description: <span>&quot;</span><span>I haven&apos;t beenthis<b>impressed by a debut</b>from an author since Behind ClosedDoors by B.A. Paris.<b>The author really nailed making you feel just howisolated Clara was and just how desperate she was.</b>Too many timeswhile reading this I was<b>gasping out loud due to a turn</b>Ihadn&apos;t seen coming or an injustice I just couldn&apos;t believe. It usually takes meabout seven days to read a book due to work and kids but I<b>devouredthis in a little over 24 hours</b>. I can&apos;t wait to spread the word about thisknockout debut.&quot; - Reviewer</span><br /><span></span><br /><span>&quot;<span>What an amazing story!

Once I picked it up I<b>could not put it down</b>, read the whole thing in one day. The<b>plotwas fascinating with all the twists and turns</b>. This is my first book by JoCrow, but it won&apos;t be my last.&quot; - Reviewer</span><span></span><br /><span></span>
