Más información sobre el libro

Everyone knows Madeleine and Jack Hunter. Maddy is an award-winning TV anchorwoman, and Jack is the head of her network, presenting a storybook marriage to the world. However, behind the doors of their Georgetown home, a different reality unfolds. Maddy has long ignored Jack's subtle put-downs, control, and jealousy. Though she bears no physical scars, the emotional wounds of fear, humiliation, and isolation run deep. It seems unfathomable that a woman idolized by the nation lives in such degradation and fear, and her secrets remain hidden even from herself. Maddy's journey toward healing begins when she joins the First Lady's Commission on Violence Against Women, where she hears familiar stories from other terrified women. There, she meets Bill Alexander, a distinguished diplomat who suspects something is wrong in her marriage and encourages her to confront the truth. As Maddy takes her first steps toward freedom, a series of significant events unfold—a stranger from her past reappears, White House headlines capture national attention, and a devastating tragedy forces her to confront what has been taken from her. Faced with a life-altering choice, Maddy discovers an inner strength she never knew she possessed. With wisdom and compassion, the bestselling novelist explores the subtle forms of abuse and ultimately delivers a powerful message about hope, change, and the courage to embrace freedom.
