Eighteen years pass after Grace escapes Henry's captivity in Louisiana. She lives a normal life with her son. However, memories of her captivity continue to haunt her.

When Grace first arrives in Chicago, her dream for a new beginning-a new life-is made possible by a kind a stranger, who feeds her, shelters her, and gives her a new purpose.

Frequent panic attacks cripple her in the beginning, but she slowly embarks on a journey of healing. As the years turn into decades, Grace is hopeful that Henry will never find her or their son...

...but Henry has other plans.
