The Wife He Buried

The Story

Elena Miller wakes from a three-year coma only to discover Vanessa wearing her clothes and raising her children. Liam and her brother James secretly keep her legs paralyzed to ensure she cannot leave. When she attempts to fight back, James whips her ninety-nine times in a locked cellar before walking away without looking back. Elena stops fighting them and starts planning instead. With the help of a long-estranged aunt, she rehabilitates her legs in secret. She then fakes her own death and vanishes. In a quiet mountain town, she finds a life that is finally hers. There, she meets a man who never once asks her to be grateful for being loved.
