Synopsis

I watched her from afar ever since she was born. I knew from the moment my eyes spied her that she was the one: the one I needed, the one I had searched for so very long. My careful planning and sacrifices would all be worth it when she was finally mine. She would not disappoint me like the others, for she is Precious.
 
Betrayed, confused and utterly alone, six-year-old Amber Rose struggles against her kidnapper. A man she once called a friend is now her deranged keeper. Stripped of any normality and locked in a room, Amber struggles in a physical and psychological war with her kidnapper, as the abuse and manipulation for control begin.
 
The case of Amber Rose hits too close to home for Police Captain Charles Milton, bringing out an obsessive need to bring Amber home - no matter the cost. But will his determination be enough to find her in time?
