The Guardian

Eighteen year old Red and her friends are on a road trip in an RV, heading to the beach for Spring Break.

It’s a long drive but spirits are high. Until the RV breaks down in the middle of nowhere. And as the wheels are shot out, one by one, the friends realise that this is no accident.

There’s a sniper out there. He’s watching them and he knows exactly who they are. One of the group has a secret that the sniper is willing to kill for.

As a game of cat-and-mouse plays out, the group desperately tries to get help. Buried secrets are forced to light and tensions within the group reach deadly levels. Only one thing is for sure. Not everyone will survive the night . . .

What a thrilling read! True to its genre, this book delivered the exact creepy, spine-tingling sensation I was looking for—in the best way possible. The build-up was incredible; the hook caught me right from the first few chapters and held my attention completely. By the midpoint, I honestly couldn't have guessed where the story was heading. Even though I had a slight inkling near the end, the plot twists were still completely unexpected and hit one after another in rapid succession.
