From the internationally bestselling, award-winning crime writer Minette Walters, The Cellar is a harrowing, compulsively readable novel about a family of African immigrants, the Songolis, and the dark secret they keep hidden in the depths of their seemingly respectable British home.

On the day Mr. and Mrs. Songoli's young son fails to come home from school, fourteen-year-old Muna's fortunes change for the better. Until then, her bedroom was a dank windowless cellar, her activities confined to cooking and cleaning. Over the years, she had grown used to being abused by the Songoli family--to being their slave.

Now that Scotland Yard has swarmed the Songoli house to investigate the disappearance of the son, Muna is given a real bedroom, real clothing, and treated, at least nominally, as a daughter. But her world remains confined. She is not allowed to go outside, doesn't know how to read or write, and cannot speak English. At least that's what the Songolis believe. Before long it becomes clear that young Muna is far cleverer--and her plans more terrifying--than the Songolis, or anyone else, can ever imagine.

Glad I Gave It a Try
Flavor Name: Orange, Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1), Flavor Name: Orange, Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I wasn't sure if this Metamucil fiber supplement would make much of a difference, but after taking it consistently, I'm really glad I decided to try it. The results weren't instant, but over time I noticed that I felt lighter, cleaner, and just generally better overall. The sugar-free formula is a nice bonus, and it's easy to make part of a daily routine. I've found that consistency is key, and once I started taking it regularly, I could definitely tell a difference. If you're on the fence about trying a fiber supplement, this one has worked very well for me. It's a simple addition to my day that has had a noticeable positive impact. I'll definitely keep using it.

It works.
Flavor Name: Orange, Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
It really does help 'keep you regular' & the name brand dissolves easier than the generic W@lm@rt brand. It doesn't MAKE you 'go', it just gives your gut a little something to work with, so to speak. Maybe TMI, but you also go alot cleaner, if you catch my drift. That's a nice bonus. ;0)

Great to curb food cravings
Flavor Name: Orange, Size: 15 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Saw this on a YouTube video for reducing appetite/curbing snack cravings and wow! I’m on day 2 and this will always be in my pantry. After 30 min of drinking this I feel sooo full. No appetite for 4 hours like I ate a huge meal. The flavor is also good. No cramps or gas and the fiber content isn’t crazy so I haven’t experienced any negative side effects either. If you’re trying to lose weight this may help. Haven’t thought about snacking all day. Give it a try
