Lizzie Engel is used to running away. At eighteen, she left her Mennonite hometown, her family, and her faith with plans never to return. Five years later, Lizzie finds she'll have to run again. From Amazon - False accusations at her job, a stalker, and a string of anonymous threatening letters have left her with no other options. This time, however, her escape is back to Kingdom, her hometown.
As Lizzie becomes reacquainted with Kingdom, she realizes she may not have left her Mennonite roots and her faith as firmly in the past as she thought. She draws on the support of Noah Housler, an old friend, as she hides out and attempts to plan her next steps.
Inescapable draws you in from the first page and doesn't let go until after the last page is turned. The tension and suspense builds and builds as the story unfolds, this reader thoroughly enraptured with Lizzie's plight. I felt bad for her, accused of stealing, being stalked and then her strict father not letting her come back home. How she handles herself, learning who she can trust, and a bit more about the town and it's people of Kingdom will have you immersed in Mehl's vividly built world. Fantastic character development, a strong plot, God's love and a girl who is trying to find herself and survive, Inescapable is a recommended read!

The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about.
