"The perfect girls' weekend turns deadly in this twisty unforgettable thriller that is perfect for fans of Shari Lapena and Riley Sager"--Book Synopsis
The perfect girls' weekend turns deadly in this twisty unforgettable thriller that is perfect for fans of Shari Lapena and Riley Sager. A girls' weekend to die for. New friends Sam, Margaret and Diana are thrilled to be getting out of the city for a girls' weekend--they've bonded over their messy divorces, and every mile on the odometer feels like another step towards putting their exes in the past. But when car trouble halfway into their trip strands them in the most unlikely of mountain towns, they come face-to-face with the hurts and betrayals they were so desperate to leave behind. When Diana doesn't return home after a night out, Sam and Margaret's search for her reveals just how little they know about their friend. As eerie coincidences and secrets begin to pile up, and an ex-boyfriend arrives in the tiny town, the women realize that their detour may not have been a mistake...and that someone wants to guarantee that they never make it out.Review Quotes
This page-turner will appeal...Chilling"--Publishers Weekly Full of secrets and twists, The Perfect Escape is a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller about a group of friends who may not know one another as well as they think. With its eerie setting, unsettling plot, and shocking reveals, this book had me completely captivated from the first page to the very last.--Megan Miranda, author of Such a Quiet Place
Nobody writes twists like Leah Konen--this woman puts Hitchcock to shame. The Perfect Escape is somehow even more fantastic than her stunning debut, All the Broken People; her sophomore effort is a gripping, whip-smart, and unforgettable pulse-pounder that left my head spinning. With its intricate plotting and truly shocking reveals, this thriller is both an addictive page-turner and a brilliant examination of female friendship, shame, and betrayals. Thriller lovers: You need this book.--Andrea Bartz, author of We Were Never Here When three women embark on a trip to forget their broken lives, they become embroiled in the center of a murder investigation. The Perfect Escape is a clever, locked room mystery that is compulsively readable and impossible to put down!--Wendy Walker, author of Don't Look for Me The Perfect Escape is the type of captivating, masterfully-constructed thriller you'll consume in a breathless rush--and then flip right back to the beginning to figure out how the author pulled it all off. Konen keeps the shocking twists coming while wringing nail-biting tension out of even the smallest moments. I couldn't put it down!-Layne Fargo, author of They Never Learn
I gulped The Perfect Escape down in one juicy, frantic sitting -- Konen's tense, captivating plot never goes where you think it might, and she expertly peels back the layers on female friendship, toxic shame, and the way love can make dupes of us all. Fans of Ruth Ware should run, not walk, to grab this twisty, shocking thriller about a girls' weekend from hell!--Haley Sutton, author of The Lady Upstairs "I really enjoyed it... Clever, complex and expertly planned"--Rachel Abbott, author of Close Your Eyes
