“These days, they don’t make victims like they used to.”
Her dark past in the US forgotten, Cass has reinvented herself in England as an artist and wife-to-be of a millionaire. But when she’s snatched from their luxury home and wakes up in the basement of a remote farmhouse, her buried past drags her back into a nightmare with no escape.
Ted, her jailer, is a collector, and now he’s collected her. She’s one of his obsessions, along with butterflies and an old movie about a troubled loner who abducts a girl so they can get to know each other and maybe fall in love. That movie didn’t have a happy ending. But Ted’s convinced life won’t imitate art. He knows everything about Cass, even her best-kept secrets. There’s only one thing he doesn’t know, and when he finds out, it may be too late…
A must-read for fans of relentless suspense, Collecting Cass is an addictive read from the first twist to the last and a dazzling modern take on the themes explored by John Fowles in his classic thriller, The Collector.
