What No Exit is like to read
A blizzard-locked rest stop turns into a claustrophobic guessing game where every stranger could be the kidnapper and every trip to the van racks up the danger. Built for one-sitting propulsion — short beats, tight stakes, a heroine improvising against a clock. Best for: readers who want a single-location thriller with a countdown-clock and a rootable protagonist.
