About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

'You'd think they'd do something about the taxi shortage,' he says. 'Especially with the missing women.'

Stranded on a dark road in the middle of the night, a young woman accepts a lift from a passing stranger. It's the nightmare scenario that every girl is warned about, and she knows the dangers all too well - but what other choice does she have?

As they drive, she alternates between fear and relief - one moment thinking he is just a good man doing a good thing, the next convinced he's a monster. But when he delivers her safely to her destination, she realizes her fears were unfounded.

And her heart sinks. Because a monster is what she's looking for.

She'll try again tomorrow night. But will the man who took her sister take the bait?

This is first book by Catherine Ryan Howard I’ve read but already planning to read more. Great narrations about a very twisty story. Couldn’t stop listening and it finished way too quickly

Worth whole thriller

Confusing, frustrating ride. The book was more about trapping the readers unfortunately. I couldn't get into this book and the ending was unsatisfying.

Not a fan
