Wow. It takes a lot for me to be so committed to a book on a school night. I started it to help me fall asleep, but suddenly its 2 am and I'm sitting here, book closed, in pure shock. I wasn't amazed by the book in the beginning. It seemed standard and I was able to catch one of the twists right away but after that I was completely lost. My brain was tossed in every direction following this plot and my stomach turned with every moment of suspense. Every single character is a dumbass but goddamn if being a stubborn dumbass doesn't help you succeed.

While snowed in at a rest stop, a woman sees a child’s handprint on a van window and upon further inspection realises there might be a child trafficker among the friendly faces trapped with her.

I really enjoyed this. While I was initially mildly upset that the twists were clunky and easy to foresee, the last fifth of the book really surprised and intrigued me and the plot was gripping.

On the whole I highly recommend, especially if you enjoy tense thrillers with relatable leads. Darby Thorne, you have my whole heart.
