Synopsis

She wakes up in a locked room.
The rules are clear. Obey—or stop breathing.

Sierra Hart’s senior year ends on October 5th.

Trapped inside a concrete bunker with no windows and no way out, she’s given a full sheet of instructions detailing exactly how to survive—and what will happen if she doesn’t.

The stationary bike bolted to the floor isn’t for exercise. It’s the only thing keeping her alive.

As Sierra fights to endure the impossible, her disappearance fractures the small town of Laketown. Rumors spread. Loyalties crack. Her ex insists he knows nothing. Her father’s past resurfaces. Even her mother has secrets.

But the deeper the search goes, the more unsettling the truth becomes. Because in Laketown, captivity isn’t only physical. Sometimes it’s about control.

And sometimes the people searching for you are the same ones you should fear.

Captivity has rules. So does love.

About the Author

Rochelle Ransom has been writing stories since she was a young girl. She grew up in a small rural town in western New York with little access to TV. This led to an overzealous imagination and a memorable and cherished childhood. Her sister was her first reader and critic. She’d find Rochelle’s stories sitting around the house in random notebooks and read them, only to discover they usually had no ending. A few colleges, degrees, and loans later, her characters were more rounded and willing to stick around for an ending. However by then she was busy as her own main character with work, marriage, and four kids. After much support and encouragement from said husband and children; she has reunited with all of her old characters and a few new ones to publish her Laketown novels. Rochelle lives in Virginia with her patient husband, supportive children, and very needy but lovable dog, Truffles.
