Imagine that you\u2019re trapped in a locked, memory care unit in a nursing home. You can\u2019t remember anything about the last few months of your life, but you know who you are, and you\u2019re pretty sure you\u2019re being drugged and held against your will\u2014especially after you overhear an administrator predict that you won\u2019t make it through the week. That\u2019s Rose\u2019s situation at the start of this nail-biter of a thriller. Once she escapes the nursing home, Rose is a highly satisfactory protagonist. She\u2019s 68 and she\u2019s no superhero, but she\u2019s smart and resourceful, crusty but vulnerable. As she\u2019s hunted by the police and the unknown individuals who had her locked away, her stalwart 13-year-old granddaughter, Mel, becomes her confederate. The story is fast-moving, intense but often quite funny, and the relationship between Rose and Mel will warm your heart. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
