âA dead-serious thriller (with a funny bone)â ( The New York Times Book Review ), from the author of the New York Times bestselling Spellman Files series, comes the story of a woman who creates and sheds new identities as she crisscrosses the country to escape her past.
Forty-eight hours after leaving her husbandâs body at the base of the stairs, Tanya Dubois cashes in her credit cards, dyes her hair brown, demands a new name from a shadowy voice over the phone, and flees town. Itâs not the first time.
She meets Blue, a female bartender who recognizes the hunted look in a fugitiveâs eyes and offers her a place to stay. With dwindling choices, Tanya-now-Amelia accepts. An uneasyâand dangerousâalliance is born.
Itâs almost impossible to live off the grid in the twenty-first century, but Amelia-now-Debra and Blue have the courage, the ingenuity, and the desperation, to try. Hopscotching from city to city, Debra especially is chased by a very dark secret. From heart-stopping escapes and devious deceptions, we are left to wonderâŚcan she possibly outrun her past?
The Passenger âs white-knuckled plot and unforeseeable twists make one thing for certain: the ride will leave you breathless. âWhen the answers finally come, they are juicy, complex, and unexpected. The satisfying conclusion will leave readers rethinking everything and immediately turning back to the first page to start again. Psychological suspense lovers will tear through this thrillerâ ( Library Journal , starred review).
