For thirteen years, Samantha Stites lived a nightmare she couldn't wake up from.

What began as an unwanted message in college quickly spiraled into relentless stalking, fear, and psychological torment. Despite multiple restraining orders, changed phone numbers, new addresses, and desperate pleas to law enforcement, Samantha was hunted—silently, obsessively—by a man who refused to let go.

Then one day in 2022, she vanished.

When police found her alive inside a custom-built, soundproof storage unit, the world was stunned. But the truth was even more horrifying: Samantha had been crying out for help for over a decade—and no one had truly listened.

13 Years of Terror: The True Story of Samantha Stites and the Stalker Who Wouldn't Let Go is a raw, chilling account of survival, systemic failure, and one woman's fight to reclaim her voice. Based on real-life events and survivor accounts, this book reveals the cracks in our justice system, the hidden terror of coercive control, and the quiet strength of a woman who refused to be erased.

If you believe in justice, survival, and truth—this is a story you need to read.

Get your copy now and stand with Samantha. Her silence is over.
