The Captives

Miranda Greene may be incarcerated for a brutal crime, but to prison psychologist Frank Lundquist, she will always be his high-school crush. Nothing could have prepared him for the morning Miranda—as magnetic as ever—walks into his office. Frank knows he should reassign Miranda’s case, but he’s insatiably curious: how did the promising daughter of a congressman end up serving time for such a shocking offense?Haunted by childhood tragedy and reeling from the disastrous relationship that led to her downfall, Miranda zeroes in on Frank as a hope for absolution—and maybe even escape. But their charged reunion will set off an astonishing chain of events with dangerous consequences for both.Wildly suspenseful and psychologically astute, The Captives is a breathtaking exploration of male and female power, freedom and peril, and the urges toward both corruption and redemption that dwell in us all.
