About this listen
How long does it take for captivity to feel like home?
Tory knew Carl was odd—the meticulous clothes, the creepy smile, the strange coffee orders—but she never imagined how dangerous he truly was until she woke up trapped in an exact replica of The Daily Grind—her own workplace, methodically recreated by the man she always thought of as harmless, if a little strange. Her job hasn't changed: serve Carl coffee, day after horrifying day, following his rigid routine. But this time, any mistake could cost her her life.
As days pass, she sees other abductees in Carl’s carefully crafted world who've already lost the fight, conditioned to accept their captivity without question. Tory isn’t going to be like the others, though. She can’t let Carl break her—but if she can't escape soon, she risks losing herself to his chilling vision of the perfect life.
With each passing moment, escape seems less likely, and compliance seems easier. But giving in means losing herself forever…
Discover why listeners can’t stop talking about Amanda Russo’s chilling psychological thriller—an addictive and unforgettable ride into the dark depths of human psychology.

Tory is such a badass ... stupid at times 🤣 but she refused to give up even after the consequences of her actions 😬
Creepy Carl has his .... issues lol but he was such a good baddie 😅
I really enjoyed some of side characters and their interactions with the main characters 🥹
It has a mild gore score for me as yes it's a thriller so has certain aspects of .... stuff but nothing I would class as too gross 😝
There's trauma and that manifests so you know why some people are the way they are. Doesn't excuse their behaviour though!
I really liked how it all came together in the end.
The narrators were brilliant... they really brought out the creepy/scared emotions and you feel for the characters and what they are going through.
