When She Escaped

A Thriller

By: Jenifer Ruff

Narrated by: Kate Handford

A thriller author discovers her novel has a chilling connection to her past.

At the luxurious Raven’s Hollow Lodge, bestselling novelist Zipporah Bazile arrives to write her next psychological thriller—a haunting story about a woman imprisoned in the basement of a remote cabin.

When Zipporah ventures beyond her suite to explore the resort, strange events occur. Someone is following her on the trails, digging online for information about her life, and slipping a mysterious powder into her drinks. Her growing romantic connection with another resort guest only deepens her paranoia. Is he part of the danger, or someone she can trust?

Shocking revelations soon threaten Zipporah's grip on reality, forcing her to question everything about her novel, past, and identity. She must confront the terrifying possibility that the ending she's writing might be her own.

An atmospheric psychological thriller with a shocking twist, perfect for Freida McFadden fans.
