The Hitchhiker

De: Gabriel Bergmoser

Narrado por: Lee Cormie, Stevie McKeon, Gyton Grantley

The Driver:

Ahead he could see only the stretch of unending road, on either side brown-scorched plains of dirt and scrub, above it all a soaring blue sky and blinding sun. Desolation that looked, to him, a hell of a lot like freedom. He wasn’t playing by anyone’s rules anymore.

The Hitchhiker:

Have you ever done something bad? The question was like a clawed hand seizing his guts. It had taken everything he’d had not to whimper, to cower away and beg. But as he’d deflected, he’d told himself to stay calm. To be in control. He had to be in control here.

The Fugitive:

She’d made a mistake. Wasn’t the first time and wouldn’t be the last. Ever since she’d left, all she’d found was more trouble. More fights. More secrets. More scars. Now here she was, still alive but a long way from anywhere, and with options dwindling fast.

From the award-winning author of The Hunted comes a fast-paced outback thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"The Hitchhiker straps the listener into the chair and slowly turns up the voltage for six terrifying hours. I haven't found a cat-and-mouse game this captivating since Misery." (Jack Heath, author of Kill Your Brother)

“A terrifying tale of violence, fear and loneliness, as achingly tender as it is nail-bitingly tense. The perfect listen for your next road trip.” (Anna Downes, author of The Safe Place)

"Two things I will never do again after devouring The Hitchhiker: miss a book by Gabriel Bergmoser; ever get in a car with him..." (Benjamin Stevenson, author of Everyone in My Family Has Killed Someone)

Now that's what I'm talkin about!

This was an awesome psychological thriller! At first it seemed a bit la-de-da but boy did it turn into a gripping story of the fate of strangers meeting and the invetible twists and turns that became delightfully dark. Just what I've been craving! Skillfully performed too! 5 stars all around!

The fast pace and ruthlessness of the charters in the Outback.

This book is great and moves fast. Twists and turns to the point of prediction but then it goes in a different direction. Think Stephen King meets Tom Clancy. It’s wonderful suspense. I highly advise anybody looking for a new book to read this. Apparently there’s more to this series so start checking it out.

views into the psycho mind

i don't know how accurate the behaviors are - but quite freaky if true. a captivating listen.

Great surprises

This has a lot of good surprise twists and really made us think! The different personalities going through similar situations showed us who we really are.

I greatly enjoy this writer

as a bit of an unconventional person, I find the writers use of uncouth language as a relief from the normal edited crap out there.

Switch of expectation

Quite a switch to what I thought it would be. Very entertaining. Would like more like this

Love the storytelling

Very nicely paced story. Characters are developed throughout the story. Loved narrator’s voices. I’m a bit of a sucker for Australian stories

The Driver

I enjoyed this book. It really held my interest and I just couldn't put it down. I wasn't crazy about the very ending but sometimes life throws us little curveballs..
if nothing else I think we can learn from this book to listen to our mother's and don't get into cars with strangers..

Interesting story

This was an interesting story. I didn't really care for the narrators. I liked the back story on the 3 main characters. The characters were all a tad strange, especially the "Driver". The ending wasn't very good and felt a little rushed.

Gripping

This author has the ability to write suspense and then some. I love the twists and turns, and even the twist at the very end. Warning: Don’t get too attached to any character. Just saying…
