Quinn Alexander flees after a crime. She could face life in prison for it. A snowstorm forces her to stop at the Baxter Motel. She needs shelter and hopes to leave at dawn. Instead, she finds new reasons to fear for her life.

The motel has a faded, rusty sign. It seems cheap, a place to stay as a last resort. Its dark, quiet rooms soon make Quinn feel watched. The owner, Nick Baxter, looks good and acts friendly. He offers her a room at a low price. His ill wife watches the motel from their house across the road. Quinn learns that someone found a young woman in her room years ago. The woman had been stabbed. No signs showed that anyone had forced their way in. Quinn must face the night before she can leave. She must trust her gut.

Freida McFadden’s psychological thriller blends two sources of fear. Quinn fears capture, yet the place she takes refuge holds danger. The book suits fans of crime, mystery, and suspense. Its twists cast doubt on how things first seem. Mihaela Apetrei translated this edition from English.
