The main setting of this books is the cellar. This setting is important because this is where Summer is held captive for six months before she is rescued.

Conflict #1 (person vs person)- Summer is kidnapped by Collin. He keeps her captive in a cellar with three other girls. Summer is there for about six months until the police finally realize all the evidence traces back to Collin. Collin is arrested and the girls are rescued.

Conflict #2 (person vs society)- Lewis doesn't feel like the police are doing enough to find Summer. He decides to get the community together and start his own search party. Collin actually ends up joining this search party to make sure they aren't  getting close to anything that will lead back to him. In the end, they find the girls and arrest Collin.

Conflict #3 (person vs person)- Since Lewis is always doing everything he can to find Summer, he doesn't get much rest. His mother was concerned because he isn't eating or sleeping. She doesn't let Lewis leave the house until he eats breakfast and she makes sure he is home before late.

I would give this book 4.5/5 stars. I really liked this book but it was a little dark at points. I would recommend this book for young adults who like mysterious/suspenseful books.

I think the theme of this book is that no one can create a family by force.
