Unbroken: Hide and Seek Mystery Series (Hide and Seek Mysteries #2)

As a child, Anissa Tate survived the unimaginable. Kidnapped and tortured, she was hidden away from the rest of the world for nearly two decades. Two years after being rescued from the cellar of a madman, Nissa is struggling to move on with her life. Still feeling like a stranger to her own family, Nissa finds herself enveloped in a darkness that threatens to consume her. Soon, she begins to paint as a way of bringing that darkness to light. Her nightmares come alive on canvas and a devastating secret is revealed. A secret that threatens to destroy her slowly, painting by painting.

Detective Ryan Wilshire wasn't there the night Nissa Tate was carried out of David Melvin's dark cellar. A childhood friend of her brother's, Ryan was on the outskirts of the investigation that finally brought her home to her family. When his feelings for Nissa become too intense, Ryan walks away from her, knowing she most likely will never be able to return those feelings. But when her family seeks his help, he is unable to turn his back on her.

Together, Nissa and Ryan embark on a desperate journey to find the answers that will lay her nightmares to rest. Along the way, an unexpected healing begins for both of them, while at the same time, they unknowingly awaken a monster. A monster who will stop at nothing, including murder, to keep his secrets hidden.
