Her husband records her every movement during the day. If he doesn't like what he sees, she is punished.

Advance Praise
This is a brilliant, chilling depiction of life on the very edges of society. I read it in one sitting, and lived every second of the book with the characters. Compelling, horrifying and gripping, and written with such empathy and control, it's probably the best thing I will read this year - Jane Casey
Misery meets Room ... a triumph - Marian Keyes
Heart-stoppingly suspenseful, a masterclass in tension - Erin Kelly
A heart-racing exploration about human survival. An addictive and insightful thriller - Maxine Mei-Fung Chung
Brilliant - Elly Griffiths
Sensational. Claustrophobic, compulsive, and almost unbearably tense it's a heart-in-mouth read that's packed with suspense. Readers will be saying 'just one more page' all the way from the gripping beginning to the heart-stopping end - C.L. Taylor
