Cut Off from Sky and Earth

Résumé du livre

A feminist fairytale retelling becomes a real-life nightmare.

From USA Today bestselling author Melissa F. Miller comes a haunting psychological thriller about two women trapped by a storm, tormented by the past, and desperate to survive the present.

A stay in a remote cabin is supposed to help Emily Rose finish her book-a feminist retelling of a fairytale about a princess and her lady-in-waiting imprisoned in a tower. Instead, it becomes the setting for a reckoning seven years in the making.

Emily has spent years hiding her trauma from the night she found her roommate murdered. When her husband, Tristan, arranges a writing retreat for her, she meets Alex, the owner of the isolated property and a woman with secrets of her own-including one that could destroy Emily's marriage.

Trapped by a fierce storm and haunted by the brutal attacks that marked their pasts, a series of unnerving events-a watcher in the woods, a smashed cell phone, slashed tires-forces the women together to rescue themselves from a very real, present danger.

Interspersed with passages of The Tower, Emily's work-in-progress, Cut Off from Sky and Earth is a chilling exploration of the weight of memory, the burden of trauma, and the courage it takes to break free.

For readers of psychological suspense, feminist thrillers, and literary mysteries with a fairytale edge.
