Samantha Leary Psychological Thrillers Abduction collection

Back to Samantha Leary Collections

Two cases. Two forms of control. One unsettling truth: safety and possession can wear the same face.

In You Belong to Me, a missing girl case begins as a presumed custody dispute—until Samantha Leary and Detective Greg Dickson uncover something far more deliberate. Jackson Hansen presents himself as a protector, a man correcting a broken home and guiding a vulnerable girl toward safety. But as the investigation deepens, Samantha and Greg begin to see a pattern of influence where trust is carefully shaped, and “protection” becomes something far more controlling.

In All Mine to Hold, the disappearance is slower to reveal itself. A stepfather insists he is not taking a child away—he is freeing her. She is old enough to choose. Her mother is the problem. What looks like guidance and care gradually tightens into something far more constrained, as Samantha Leary begins to recognize that the most dangerous form of captivity is the one justified as love.

Across both novels, Samantha is forced to confront cases where force is not the primary weapon—language is. Authority is. Belief is.

The Abduction Collection is a psychological thriller pairing about control disguised as protection, and the quiet ways people can be made to belong somewhere they never consciously chose.
