This book has all the elements I love in a secluded thriller, masterfully done with heart-pounding suspense and a solid backstory.

For me, nothing’s better than a thriller with a single setting and a heroine trapped by the weather who must cleverly unravel a mystery to escape. The author does an excellent job of combining a claustrophobic setting—a snowed-in rest stop in the mountains of Colorado—with a couple of super creepy characters for the heroine to contend with.

When college student Darby Thorne gets caught in a blizzard in the Colorado mountains, she’s forced to wait out the storm at a remote highway rest stop along with four complete strangers.

Who can she trust? This intense and brutal no-holds-barred thriller features a heroine unlike any I’ve ever seen and a story I won’t quickly forget.
