Book summary:
\nHer friends probably co uld be forgiven for thinking that Molly Bradley is \;the \;heroine of a cozy mystery. She lives in lovely Graybridge\, Massachusetts\; she w orks in a bookstore\; she's married to a psychologist everyone loves.
\nMolly's dreams of happiness end \;the \;morning after Dr. Jay Bradley's 40th birthday party\, when she awakens to find him dead on \;the \;floor of his home office\, his throat cut. Det. Rita M yers\, whose first-person narrative alternates with Molly's\, naturally wa nts to talk to \;the \;friends who gathered for \;the \;pa rty. But nothing said by any of them &mdash\; Molly's BFF\, Kim Pearson\, and her husband\, Josh\; Jay's partner\, Dr. Elise Westmore\, and her husb and\, Scott\; and Jay's hockey buddy\, Cal Ferris\, and his wife\, Laken & mdash\; can hold a candle to Molly's own history\, which was known only to Jay. Abducted as a child along with a friend and neighbor\, she was impri soned in a basement and repeatedly molested\, and she's suffered ever sinc e from \;the \;dreadful knowledge that \;the \;other victi m didn't survive.
\nNow \;the \;news that Jay was c ontacting imprisoned felons for a possible book and \;the \;discov ery in his filing cabinet of a necklace belonging to \;the \;missi ng Annalise Robb threatens to bring Molly's past crashing back into her ca refully constructed present. And \;the \;phone calls she gets from someone claiming to know \;all \;about that basement and determin ed to return her to captivity force her sorrow at not having children\, an d even her grief about her husband\, into supporting roles as she struggle s to take charge of her own life.
