Why read it?
1 author picked Survive the Night as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Riley Sager is one of my favorite authors, and this book is my favorite of all his books.
The secluded location? A speeding car. The main character, Charlie, needs to get home from college and shares a ride with a new acquaintance who may or may not be a serial killer. I loved the tension woven into each chapter, the slow unraveling of Charlie’s past, her suspicious fascination with classic movies, and the relentless, unexpected twists compounding in the end.
This is one of those books that has stuck in my mind and will probably be there forever.
From T.O.'s list on secluded and trapped survival thrillers.
