(From Goodreads) When reclusive novelist Senna Richards wakes up on her thirty-third birthday, everything has changed. Caged behind an electrical fence, locked in a house in the middle of the snow, Senna is left to decode the clues to find out why she was taken. If she wants her freedom, she has to take a close look at her past. But, her past has a heartbeat… and her kidnapper is nowhere to be found. With her survival hanging by a thread, Senna soon realizes this is a game. A dangerous one. Only the truth can set her free.

This book probably messed with my head more than anything else Ive ever read, besides maybe Survivor, by Chuck Palahniuk. Thats another one I’d recommend if you really want to go for a ride on the “wtf did i just read express”

@Mino in a way, its similar, but its not really horror. More psychological suspense. But Fisher is just a masterful writer.

I was going to say the same thing. I had to read the last 15 or 20 pages again just to make sure what I thought happened really happened.
