Journalist Miranda Jack (Jax) is finally attempting to move on from the death of her husband by relocating up the coast with her young daughter, Zoe. Then a single carjacking by a gun-wielding man changes everything.
Forced to drive at high speed up the motorway, Jax listens to the frantic rants of Brendan Walsh, a man who claims he’s being chased and that they’re both now running for their lives.
Two hours later the carjacking ends and Jax is safe but she can’t simply walk away. She is determined to discover the truth about the terrifying drive.
As a journalist, Miranda has always asked questions. But this time the questions are dangerous – and the answers might get her killed.

This thriller kicks off at break-neck speed on page 1 and soon I wanted to know the answers to Jax’s questions as much as she did. The story never lags and I liked that Jax was a strong female character who used her resourcefulness to save her life.
I foresee more of Jaye Ford’s novels in my near future!
