About this listen

Times Thriller of the Month

Hannah knows the cage intimately. Small, the size of a shopping mall parking space. A bed, a basin, a table and chair. A hatch and metal drawer through which to exchange food and other items.

Then there's him. Always there on the edges of her vision, no matter how hard she tries to block him out.

Every day, the same thoughts run through Hannah's mind:

What if he speaks to me?

What if he hurts me?

What if he gets out?

A brilliant, high concept, intensely gripping thriller perfect for fans of THE SILENT PATIENT, THE CAPTIVE is a standout new thriller from one of the most exciting new voices in crime fiction. It will keep you guessing till the very end . . .

"An ingenious premise that turns into a smart, pacy and highly entertaining thriller - Deborah O'Connor shows once again why she's one of the most original writers around." (T. M. Logan)
