Lois and pretty Carly May were just twelve years old when they were kidnapped, driven across the country, and held in a cabin in the woods for two months by a charismatic stranger. Decades later, Lois has become a professor, teaching British literature at a small college in upstate New York, and Carly May is an actress in Los Angeles, drinking too much and struggling to revive her career. When a movie with a shockingly familiar plot draws the two women together once more, they must face the public exposure of their secret history and confront the dark longings and unspeakable truths that haunt them still.
