The Stranger Inside

The Stranger Inside by Lisa Unger
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

The story is about Rain Winter, journalist, who suffered a terrible near abduction when she was younger.  Along with her friends Hank and Tess, and finds herself and Hank the only ones to survive.  So the books follows Hank and Rain, in their adult life, the affect their dark childhood has on them.

Not only can they not let it go, but it also binds them and overflows into their everyday life, Rain's marriage is effected and Hank, though he becomes a psychologist, cant seem to go past the event.  I found the book interesting, but not a fan of the back and forth narrating between Hank and Rain, often flashing back to when they were twelve and the incident that happened.  

It was a good story though, making you think of what goes on in the minds of children as they become adults and how they handle a traumatic incident.  How it goes on to mix with their everyday life and also how it will never go away.  #audiobook  #threestars
