Kelly Halloway was just eleven-years-old when convicted sex offender, Everett Campbell abducted her. After nearly eight months of being held in captivity, Kelly manages to escape and is, by chance, found by Lysander "Sandy" Sinclair out for a joy ride on his sixteenth birthday. Fourteen years later, Kelly is living in Chicago and making every effort to keep herself ambiguous in a crowd of strangers. Here she feels oddly safe amongst the faceless multitude of people. Still wondering what happened to Kelly, Sandy is stunned to learn they are living in the same city. With his determination not to give up on her, Kelly struggles to start a new life that includes an attempt at building a relationship, but coming out of self-imposed seclusion may be the worst decision of her life. After all, Everett Campbell was never arrested.
