"I'm almost there. The years of longing for the return of all my siblings is nearly over. Thank you to all those bad parents out there.

Book Blurb“One of us, one of these days, will kill the other. Either he’ll kill me because he can’t live without me or I’ll kill him because he’ll never let me go.” —Wyatt Corringer
Sixteen-year-old Wyatt Corringer was kidnapped by his father’s best friend in the swamps of central Florida seven years ago. Plagued with Stockholm Syndrome, Wyatt has been unable to escape from the clutches of his abductor and now finds himself locked away with four young girls. All are trapped in the sick world of Adrian Webster, a man obsessed with replacing his family, even forcing his hostages to take the names of his dead siblings. But Adrian is not working alone. There’s a side to Adrian he can’t control—a side he can’t see, like Jekyll and Hyde or the Incredible Hulk. Adrian calls it his demon. Wyatt calls it Shade, a non-human entity that takes over Adrian’s consciousness and causes him to act in dark and disturbing ways. And every day, Adrian loses more control to Shade and the evilness of his mind. Wyatt must overcome Adrian’s stronghold and help free everyone. If he doesn’t, he could end up losing his identity to his own demon. International award winning and bestselling author, Sandie Will, continues this harrowing story that started with The Takings and continues with The Replacings, a heart-wrenching, edge-of-your-seat read that captures the deep and complicated connection between abductor and abductee.

Book TrailerEditorial ReviewReviewed by Shannon Winings for Readers' Favorite
Florida swamps are home to horrific nightmares where someone is chasing you and you just can't get away from the dark figure following you. Yet, these types of nightmares become real when young Wyatt disappears from the Green Swamp on his way home. Jeremy Corringer has already lost his wife and cannot possibly bear to lose his beautiful child. His friend, Adrian Webster, feels for him and wants to help. He is no stranger to tragedy as he lost his own brother ten years ago and still wrestles with the aftershock to this day. Adrian doesn't want his friend to suffer and the only way to do that is to find Wyatt before time runs out. Soon, Adrian is plagued with "visions" that may just be the key to finding the young boy and restoring his own life. The Takings by Sandie Will immediately pulled me into the story. It was mysterious, dark, and suspenseful to the very end. The author was also extremely talented at writing descriptive, vivid imagery that put me in the book with the characters. At times, I felt trapped in the swamp and Adrian's visions as well. In addition, I also felt some sort of sympathy and empathy for the villain. I was so conflicted as you clearly should root for good over evil but sometimes you can't help feeling a bit too much when you come across some great writing. The Takings by Sandie Will is definitely a great mystery to read on your vacation this year. The Caging at Deadwater ManorUpper Young Adult Psychological Thriller/Suspense
