"Living Dead Girl" by Elizabeth Scott

I read this book in one day; it was impossible to put down. This story is every parent's worst nightmare. Alice was abducted by Ray when she was 10 years old, and for the last 5 years has been terrified for her life and that of her family. Ray subjects Alice to obey his every command, and Alice has to numb herself to be able to cope with her situation. Ray is damaged from emotional abuse from his own mother. Ray is evil to the core and his relationship with Alice sent shivers down my spine. I cringed when Alice is forced to do the unthinkable. Mature subject matter.
