Description

Soon to be a Hulu original film: a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller about a determined young woman who struggles to save a kidnapped child while trapped in a blizzard—and who must unmask and outwit a deviously twisted psychopath before it’s too late.

A kidnapped little girl locked in a stranger’s van. No help for miles. What would you do?

On her way to Utah to see her dying mother, college student Darby Thorne gets caught in a fierce blizzard in the mountains of Colorado. With the roads impassable, she’s forced to wait out the storm at a remote highway rest stop. Inside are some vending machines, a coffee maker, and four complete strangers.

Desperate to find a signal to call home, Darby goes back out into the storm . . . and makes a horrifying discovery. In the back of the van parked next to her car, a little girl is locked in an animal crate.

Who is the child? Why has she been taken? And how can Darby save her?

There is no cell phone reception, no telephone, and no way out. One of her fellow travelers is a kidnapper. But which one?

Trapped in an increasingly dangerous situation, with a child’s life and her own on the line, Darby must find a way to break the girl out of the van and escape.

But who can she trust?

With exquisitely controlled pacing, Taylor Adams diabolically ratchets up the tension with every page. Full of terrifying twists and hairpin turns, No Exit will have you on the edge of your seat and leave you breathless.

    I bought this book off the suggestion of someone else, and initially struggled to maintain much interest. I told my wife last night before going to bed that I didn’t think I’d be able to finish it and would likely just watch the Hulu movie and hope to get a feel for the general theme or something. Luckily for me, the chapter I was trying to fight through happened to be the one where everything took off and never really let up. I got hooked and actually had to force myself to stop reading so I could get to sleep before finishing it tonight. I’m probably not the target audience for a book like this, but I really did enjoy the story and the intensity once it took off.

    4/5 stars. Plot twist happens early on in the book, kept my attention for the whole read. Ends better than expected.

    4.5 stars!! Flew through this fast paced thriller, didn’t want to put it down. Overall well executed and well written. A great read for the winter months! Most thrillers are a who done it but with this novel it has a little bit of mystery in the beginning but you find out the main characters roles pretty early on but still has plenty of plot twists throughout which was a nice change of pace for this genre. Great read!

    I could NOT put this book down. From the opening line, I had to keep turning the pages to find out what would happen next. Everything leading up to the last two paragraphs at the end, which was completely unexpected! Great, Great Book! 👏👏👏👏

    Twists and turns begin before the first chapter is even over. Totally unpredictable outcome and riveting story telling. I read this in one sitting.

    I really liked the book, I read it in just three sittings. I for sure will read another book by the author. I had to find out what happened with the main characters.
