Klappentext zu „Other of My Kind “
At age eight, Jenny Rowan was abducted and kept for two years in a box beneath her captor's bed. Eventually she escaped and, after living for 18 months on cast-offs at the local mall, was put into the child-care system. Suing for emancipation, at age 16 she became a legal adult. Now she works as a production editor for the local public TV station, and is one of the world's good people. One evening she returns home to find a detective waiting for her. Though her records are sealed, he somehow knows her story. He asks if she can help with a young woman who was abducted.
