Sponsored by The audiobook edition of Jane Anonymous
Jane Anonymous, the new audiobook from bestselling author Laurie Faria Stolarz, is a revelatory confessional of a seventeen-year-old girl’s fight to escape a kidnapper—and her struggles to connect with loved ones and a life that no longer exists. Seven months. That’s how long “Jane Anonymous” was kept captive. But, now that she’s been freed and back home with friends and family, life is anything but back to normal. How far will she go to uncover the truth of what happened? This gripping narrative is expertly read by narrator Emily Bauer.
