The Voice Inside the Cellar

The Voice Inside the Cellar

Trafficked to remote Black Rock in the Appalachians, Lina Hayes is imprisoned and brutalized by her buyer Joe Datch. After three failed escape attempts, she is locked in a freezing root cellar, where she hears the voice of her supposed unborn child guiding her to survive. She digs her way out, evades coyotes, armed search parties and a life-threatening infected wound with the help of a mute old hunter. She manages to call 911 and is finally rescued by federal law enforcement. Later she learns the voice was a trauma-induced hallucination. She testifies to dismantle a multi-state trafficking ring, saving 36 women, then returns home to make peace with her painful past.
