Mistaken Identity

Publisher Marketing: Carrie has just broken up with her possessive boyfriend. She's ready to celebrate with a few of her co-workers. Parking in a garage, she gets out of her car to find two men grabbing and pushing her into the back of a limousine. All the door handles and window buttons have been removed from the back doors. There is no way for her to escape. Traveling all night, Carrie finds herself in a very large house. Mr. Langford, a wealthy man, is brought into the room where she is sitting with one of the driver's watching her. "Cynthia." He greets her. In his tone she hears that he has missed her. "My name is Carrie, Mr. Langford." But she cannot convince anyone that she is not Mrs. Cynthia Langford, the older man's wife. After several days, Carrie is resigned to being captive. There is always one of Mr. Langford's goons watching her, making sure she cannot leave him again. Lounging around the pool one day, a younger version of her proposed husband came in and confronted her. He believes this is Cynthia, and he has a hatred for the woman. Carrie explains how she came to be there, and who she is. Clint begins to see that it is only a physical resemblance. It's uncanny, and he has to keep reminding himself that this isn't his step-mother. Helping her get away from the mansion one night, Clint takes her home. She finds she's lost her job, but what bothers her most is worry that the Langford goons will come back and take her again. Her worries become reality, but she dodges their attempts. She doesn't want to go back to the luxury she had found for that week and a half. Though Mr. Langford was kind, and she could have had everything she wanted, she was comfortable with her life in Akron. But Mr. Langford wants his wife back, at any cost.
