Book Synopsis Invisible Chains by : Kristina Sauerwein

Download or read book Invisible Chains written by Kristina Sauerwein. This book was released on 2008-04-15. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In January 2007, two boys were found in the home of Michael J. Devlin, a “nice enough guy” who managed a pizza parlor in Kirkwood, Missouri. One boy had been kidnapped four days earlier. The other, Shawn Hornbeck, had been missing for four years. How and why did this fifteen-year old, whose face appeared on thousands of milk cartons and “Have You Seen Me?” posters, stay with his abductor in plain view for four years, only an hour from his family home? From award-winning journalist Kristina Sauerwein comes this riveting story of the American kidnapping that startled the nation and catapulted the chilling reality of Stockholm Syndrome into the spotlight. Shawn had many opportunities to ask for help: he was left alone in his kidnapper’s apartment many times, and had phone and Internet access. But he never tried to escape. This is the first time the full story has been told, complete with interviews with law enforcement, and top psychological experts; and a real-life happy ending.

While running from the slave catchers, they meet conjurers, a loup-garou, and a traveling circus of supernatural freaks.

I was glad to have one at my side..." So writes Michelle Renee Lane in her chilling and charming adventure INVISIBLE CHAINS. The unbridled horrors of Delta slave masters are met by the mysterious powers of supernatural creatures but human brutality can only be held at bay by the pure heart and pure magic of Lane's superb narrator.--Jewelle Gomez, author of THE GILDA"Lane's absorbing tale of a woman born into slavery, who learns to use magic passed down to her from ancestors to survive held my attention from page one to the end.

She is reluctant at first, but when the unthinkable happens to Ruth, Isabel realizes her loyalty is available to the bidder who can provide her with freedom. From acclaimed author Laurie Halse Anderson comes this compelling, impeccably researched novel that shows the lengths we can go to cast off our chains, both physical and spiritual.
