Wrong Exit

Treacherous Trips Collection - Standalone Thrillers, Book 1

De: N.L. Hinkens

Narrado por: Whitney Dykhouse

Her life is about to change—if she survives the road trip.

Driving the I-40 coast-to-coast was never on Cora Dalton’s bucket list, until the day she finds out she has inherited a house in New York from a grandmother she has never met. Terrified of flying, Cora talks her best friend, Adele, into accompanying her on what they think will be a rip-roaring fun, 10-day road trip.

But when they pick up a teenage runaway at a gas station with a dark and disturbing past, things begin to go awry. Someone is following them—someone determined to finish the job they started. When their passenger inexplicably disappears at their motel one night, they find her diary in the back seat of the car. Everything in it points to murder.

But never believe what you read. The truth lies between the lines.

An edge-of-your-seat thriller with an earth-shattering final twist!

Love the twist at the end

I enjoyed this story and it was hard to put down. The end surprised me.

Each Chapter Leaves One Anticipating

I was constantly wondering what will happen next. I couldn’t wait to get on my bicycle and lose myself in this book. I could never have figured out the twists and turns. I really enjoyed this book.

Fanatic thriller

This is an amazing book with a twist at the end that will throw you for a loop!

I really enjoy NL Hinkens books as she always creates the best creepy and twisty stories.

From the title you know things are going to go sideways but when best friends Cora and Adele set out on their adventure they have no idea what was waiting for them.

Secrets, lies and unknowns from the past will come full circle and give you the best reading experience. I loved this adventure as we’ve driven across the country several times and I recognized many of the stops.

The audiobook, narrated by Whitney Dykhouse, is fantastic. Whitney does an amazing job with the narration with her energy, emotion and fantastic voice.

I received a complimentary copy and I am leaving my honest review.

Twisty

I liked this book a lot. Couple twists that I hadn’t expected. I kinda had a feeling on something but was off by a bit. Glad for that. Hate when I figure out the end. Good thriller. Good audio.

What could go wrong on a cross country drive?

I recently received a review copy of the audiobook version of Wrong Exit from the author and was blown away.
Do you enjoy stories that are not what they seem, and are filled with clues that drive you to what appear to be the right direction? What about when all your preconceived notions about the story come crashing down and you are left wondering how you never saw it coming? Well, if you can answer yes to either of those questions grab a copy of Wrong Exit and settle in for a cross-country trip that will have your head spinning at times. I must be honest; I’ve read/listened to several of N.L. Hinkens’ books and while I’d be hard pressed to say which is my favorite, Wrong Exit is right up there in the race for the top spot.
While I remembered most of the story from my reading, Whitney Dykhouse’s narration did an excellent job filling in all the blanks as well as bringing the story and each of the characters to life. While I love to read, there are times when having an excellent narrator read you a story is just as good. If you enjoy psychological thrillers, grab a copy and settle in for a wild ride across America.

Last minute twist

Excellent book, great story which keeps you wanting more, then the twist, I didn’t see all that transpired at the end. Well worth a listen

I would have enjoyed more if I'd read it

I chose to listen to this book after receiving a free audio copy from the author. All opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased.

Most of this story is told from Cora’s POV. She’s a fashion influencer who has been able to quit her “regular” job, has recently gotten married, and now she’s inherited a house from the grandmother she never met. Her life should be perfect, right? Unfortunately, that’s not so easy.

Wrong Exit is suspenseful but frustrating at times. Some of Cora’s decisions didn’t make a lot of sense to me.

The narrator was okay. Her timing was good. I’m not sure if she was trying to make the story even more suspenseful, but it sounded like she was whining throughout the book.

If you’re looking for a suspenseful thriller with a big final twist, I recommend this book but to read rather than listen to.

Outstanding! I never saw the end of this one.

Wrong Exit: A psychological suspense thriller (Treacherous Trips Collection - Standalone Thrillers), my thirteenth amazing (222-page/7-hour 15-minute) read from author N.L. Hinkens. I enjoyed the outstanding domestic thriller with its intricately woven twists and turns, all of Hinken's works have had more knots than Alexander the Greats Gordian Knot, I never saw the end of this one until the end! Norma (N.L.) Hinkens is one of my favorite authors! I was given an Audible copy of this book and am voluntarily reading & reviewing it. Narrator Whitney Dykhouse's outstanding narration adds to the book's enjoyment. Right Behind You: A psychological suspense thriller (Payback Pasts Collection - Standalone Thrillers) is next on my TBR list. (RIP Marley January 20, 2014 - July 24, 2018).

A Crazy Plot

The whole story is unbelievable. The twists and turns are crazy I think the whole story was a waste of time. Narrator was good.

Don’t waste a credit.

Boring and predictable!

Do not waste a credit or $ on this story. I had high expectations and was left flat.
