Review: Wrong Exit

Wrong Exit by N.L. Hinkens
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

In her newest thriller, NL Hinkens really drives the plot and action forward. A cross-country road trip, a million dollar inheritance, and time with your bestie... what could go wrong? When our protagonist finds a stowaway in the backseat of the car, we find just how much can go wrong.

As with all her other works, this book is a good blend of narrative, thrills, and dialogue. The characters and actions really draw you in and cause you to want to hit the gas pedal to get to the next chapter.

By my estimation, the only Wrong Exit in this book is that it ends at all.

ARC from author. All opinions my own.
