Because she only has twenty-four hoursto make one hell of a trip.

My run of low rated reads continues 🙁

This looked like it would be nonstop terror but it actually became rather pedestrian very quickly. Yes, there is violence, death, gore, & countless scenes of our heroine getting a head injury - so many that I was surprised she didn't have permanent brain damage after - but I was expecting a thrilling cat-and-mouse chase. I think nearly everyone will see the twist coming from very early on. 1.5⭐

OutsmartYourShelf TW: animal abuse/death, violence, gore, murder, sexual assault, kidnapping, foul language.

Terrifying. Insane shock value! A little gruesome at times, but otherwise a great thriller! #catsoflitsy

Book #1 for 2018 - dark and disturbing describes this book best! It was also a page turner so I‘m going with a pick even though there were times I just had to stop reading (that‘s how disturbing it was). Recommended but not for everyone!

Hetzjagd von Vikki Pettersson

Hier wurde ein Thriller aufs Papier gebracht, der mich hart an meine eigenen Grenzen brachte.
Er ist brutal, schonungslos, kalt und abgründig.
Actionreich , ein Roadtrip der ganz besonderen Art, der jedoch seine wahre Natur erst danach offenbart.
Eine nette Lektüre für zwischendurch, mir war er jedoch zu vorhersehbar
