On the day she was abducted, Annie O’Sullivan, a thirty-two year old realtor, had three goals—sell a house, forget about a recent argument with her mother, and be on time for dinner with her ever- patient boyfriend. The open house is slow, but when her last visitor pulls up in a van as she's about to leave, Annie thinks it just might be her lucky day after all. Interwoven with the story of the year Annie spent as the captive of psychopath in a remote mountain cabin, which unfolds through sessions with her psychiatrist, is a second narrative recounting events following her escape—her struggle to piece her shattered life back together and the ongoing police investigation into the identity of her captor.
The truth doesn’t always set you free.
"Still Missing" is that rare debut find--a shocking, visceral, brutal and beautifully crafted debut novel.

So after a huge break until I got the audiobook, I finally finished it. I liked the book and the narrator was good bu...
I have read in the paper about people being kidnapped but never thought a lot about what the person may have gone through. I felt that Chevy Stevens did a really good job of telling Anne's story. I liked the surprise twist at the end.
Annie is just finishing up her open house, when a man with bright eyes and a charming smile pulls up. He seems interested and knows a lot about the listing. She takes him inside and shows him around. The next thing she knows, he has a gun in her back and he pushes her into the van. He abducts her an...
