Inescapable {Review and Giveaway}

July 16, 2012 by Trish

Inescapable is the story of twenty-three year old Lizzie Engel, who had fled her Mennonite hometown of Kingdom, Kansas, shortly after the birth of her daughter, Charity. The pain of growing up with a strict and unforgiving father was only compounded by the shame of having a baby out of wedlock, so Lizzie has tried to make a new life for herself in Kansas City. She thought she had found a safe haven at the Harbor House, a shelter for abused women.

Sylvia, the director there at Harbor House, had taken Lizzie under her wing, giving her a job and helping her adjust to life in the “real world.” Unfortunately, Sylvia has now resigned for health reasons, and her replacement seems intent on making Lizzie’s life miserable. She has even gone so far as to accuse Lizzie of stealing money from the shelter. This, combined with the stalker who has been following Lizzie and leaving her threatening notes, forces her to do the unthinkable—return to Kingdom.
