Thanh Dao and her sister were promised employment and a better life in England. But Thanh was taken by Lenn to his farm to be his wife. Everything has been taken from her in the seven years she's been imprisoned on his farm. The first time she tried to escape, he caught her and made it nearly impossible to try again. Now she's watched constantly by Lenn and the cameras that film her every move. He even takes her name, calling her Jane after his mother and his first wife. But when she discovers she's pregnant, she's more determined than ever to escape.
I was shocked and horrified by the conditions "Jane" was forced to endure for years. I was rooting her on throughout the book that even though she suffered endless pain for years she still stayed strong, plotting against Lenn every second of every day. This story was hard to read but well worth it.
