But she wakes up two weeks back in time. No one else remembers the terror that came before. Is it all in her own mind?

With every loop, her world twists into a new version of itself. Suze must discover why it’s happening and who is behind the kidnappings. She’s running out of time to save her family and wake up in a world she recognises.
