6.20.2021 - Hostage

Hostage by Clare Mackintosh

Many thanks to NetGalley and Sourcebooks Landmark for gifting me a digital ARC of the latest 5 star thriller by one of my top favorite authors, Clare Mackintosh.  If you haven't read her debut, I Let You Go, you must add it to your list!

Mina and her husband, Adam, are having issues in their marriage.  Their adopted daughter, Sophia, is gifted but challenging.  Mina just needs a break so she switches assignments with a fellow flight attendant to be on the inaugural nonstop 20-hour flight from London to Sydney, Australia.  But on board, she is handed a threatening note by an anonymous passenger who knows just how to make Mina comply with the appalling request.  At home, Adam, who is caring for Sophia while Mina is away, has his secrets brought to his doorstep and threatening his safety as well as Sophia's.  

Taking place over the 20-hour flight, this is a non-stop tense thriller that will keep you guessing until the very last page when yet another twist will leave you gaping!  Between the two storylines of Adam and Mina, both will leave you on the edge of your seat as well as questioning what you would do in these situations.  Clear your calendar because you will not be able to put this book down - highly recommended!
