I read the ARC so my opinion might be different.
I was not expecting the Passengars to survive and having accidents all over. The ending was brilliant, when the same thing that started to happened to the Passengars happenef to someone else. I also can’t believe Jules disappeared. I’m surprised he wound up being behind the hacking

In a future that seems not impossible in the next twenty to thirty years, driver-less cars have become the norm in the U.K. Pushed through and supported by the government, roads and infrastructure has been renovated to support and make electric, driver-less cars the cost effective option for citizens. But what happens when a driver-less car is involved in an accident? Who's at fault?
Libby is finding that out. Never a supporter of the driver-less car movement after being a witness to a terrible accident during their initial inception, Libby is forced into jury duty for the committee organized to decide who is at fault during a Level 5 (driver-less) car accident anyways. Forced to spend a week locked away and judging one incident after another, she is finding herself having trouble standing her own under the peer-pressure of the rest of the panel, even though she knows they're wrong.
When proceedings are interrupted by late breaking news, no one expected the following disaster. Eight unhackable Level 5 vehicles have been hacked and the lives of the passengers have been threatened and broadcast on every social media platform available. Libby and the rest of the panel now find themselves at the center of a hostage situation where the Hacker is forcing them to choose who lives and dies and airing everyone's secrets on live television. Honesty is the only acceptable answer and the repercussions mean someone's life.
What drew me to this story was the idea of driver-less cars and how they can be hacked for personal gain. What I found myself staying for was the conspiracy and ultimate moral of this story. John Marr's does an amazing job of creating characters that draw you in and a crisis situation that anyone could relate too. An excellent story!

This 3rd book brings the world of the marriage act, the one and passengers all together.
Rating: 2.5/5
I was so excited to read this, and the beginning of the book was pretty good, but I didn’t care about the mc’s (I can’t even remember her name) storyline at all.

2 ⭐️DNF - This book had an interesting plot but was just a bit slow. There were too many characters I think, if there had been less we could have moved along faster and I enjoyed the main characters storyline. Just never felt like I got into this book.
I lost interest towards the end. But overall it was a unique story.

The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star is because I didn't buy the main character being so stuck on a guy she spent 4 hours with. I felt like I was reading Ariel tell her dad she loves a complete stranger. Girl, what? Yes, we've all been on a date and then never heard from someone we thought we had a connection with but months and then more months later, you have to know his story? Also, this made me never want to get in a driverless car so thanks for that new fear. Lol

Great plot and twists were so good! Such a relatable topic. in a way made me think a lot about how AI is being used in the real world. The audiobook was full cast with sound effects so good!!
