For ten years, Mia and Liam have survived captivity the only way possible. Together.

His hand finds hers every night through a small hole in the wall of their adjoining cells. He has stood between her and the worst of what their captor does. She has been his reason to stay sane, to stay human, to keep waiting. They have loved each other in the only language their circumstances allow—completely, and without a future.

When they finally run, they expect the hardest part to be behind them.

They are wrong.

Readers have been staying up until 2am and crying in the shower. This is that book.

What We Kept is the dark literary fiction readers are calling one of the most emotionally devastating reads of the year. And the one they can't stop thinking about long after the last page.

For readers who understand that love born in trauma is still love—and that some stories can only be told in the dark.

If you finish this book unchanged, you weren't reading carefully enough.
