Wow. I don’t quite have the words to describe how I am feeling after finishing this book. It was one of the best thrillers I’ve read in a long time.
The captive follows Hannah and Jem. Set in a world where the victim of a crime, has to look after the perpetrator in their home. This concept alone was fascinating to me. It really made you think and question everything you thought you knew.
The book has passages from the view points of the different characters. Mostly this consists of Hannah and Jem. I love when books are written like this, it allows you to delve deeper into the thought processes of the characters.
The twists and turns in this book kept me on the edge of my seat. I ended up reading most of the second half of the book within 24 hours, I just couldn’t put it down! I would be blindsided by a plot twist, and before I could right myself, another one would come out of nowhere. I felt so many emotions throughout, it would be an injustice to try to put them into words. By the last chapter I could feel the tears welling up in my eyes. The intense emotions coming to the fore, and the sadness and saying goodbye to Hannah and Jem’s story.
This is a book that will live with me, and remain on my bookshelf to be re-read for years to come. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone, especially anyone who lovers thrillers!
