It's been maybe over a month since I finished this book, but still find it hard to review. It's an incredibly emotional book about a mother and son held captive in a small shed and their experience surviving in and out of that shed. Written from the perspective of the 5 year old boy, Jack. Being a stay at home mom of a young child so many themes in this book hit home for me. It's a thrilling read and will keep you wanting more all the way to the end.
