“I am living in hell from one day to the next. But there is nothing I can do to escape. I don't know where I would go if I did. I feel utterly powerless, and that feeling is my prison. I entered of my own free will, I locked the door, and I threw away the key.”
----Haruki Murakami
Sam Baker, an English author, pens a thrilling crime fiction in her new book, The Woman Who Ran that unfolds the story of a war photographer who settles in a tiny, forgotten village in Yorkshire after an accident that she only remembers in fragments and hazes of memory glimpses, but what makes her stand out among the friendly and warm villagers is her secretive, non-friendly and indeterminate behavior. What is she hiding? Or rather what/who is she hiding from?
