From the author of Sunday Times and New York Times bestseller Damaged, the gripping story of a woman caught in a horrific cycle of abuse - and the desperate lengths she must go to, to escape.
When Aisha spots an ad for a 'personal introductory service for professionals' in the newspaper, she could never have guessed it would lead to such a perfect marriage. But you should be careful what you wish for…
Mark is sorry the first time he hits Aisha. His tears make her all the more determined to be a better wife; not to let herself down again. But however hard Aisha tries, she can't live up to Mark's impossible expectations – or escape his terrifying, violent temper. Soon she is trapped in a cycle of horrific abuse and imprisonment. And with two young children to protect, Aisha must draw on what strength she has left to find an escape.
What follows is something so devastating it plunges Aisha into her darkest days yet. Is the price she must pay for freedom too high?

Bra och välskriven. Iom att den är skönlitterär till skillnad från de flesta av Glass andra böcker så var den mer intensiv, tom läskig, att lyssna till. Det är ju ett väldigt jobbigt ämne. Jag gillar annars Glass för att det är seriösa ämnen men oftast skildrat på ett ”snällt” slutet gott allting gott-sätt. Brukar fungera bra att somna till. Inte denna gång. Dvs bästa Glass-boken hittills men läskig lyssning. Skippa den om du är ute efter något mer lättsamt.

Jag föredrar berättelserna med cathy själv i. Dom är bättre. Men helt okej bok.
