Joy Ride: When a Prank Turns Deadly

WHEN SIBLINGS TESSA, NATE, AND CHASE SET OUT ON A SIMPLE ROAD TRIP TO MEND THEIR FRACTURED PAST, THEY EXPECT AWKWARD SILENCES… MAYBE A FEW ARGUMENTS. WHAT THEY DON'T EXPECT IS THAT ONE STUPID GAME OF TWO TRUTHS AND A LIE WILL SPARK THE ATTENTION OF THE WRONG VOICE ON THE CB RADIO.

A VOICE THAT DOESN'T LAUGH.
A VOICE THAT DOESN'T STOP.
A VOICE THAT WANTS TO HUNT.

NOW EVERY MILE DRAGS THEM DEEPER
INTO A NIGHTMARE OF HEADLIGHTS,
METAL, AND BLOOD. OUT HERE, SURVIVAL
ISN'T ABOUT TRUTH OR LIES—IT'S ABOUT
WHO'S WILLING TO RUN, HIDE, OR FIGHT
BACK AGAINST
THE MONSTER BEHIND THE WHEEL.

SOME ROADS LEAD HOME.
OTHERS LEAD STRAIGHT TO HELL.

JUMP INTO THIS PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR
THAT WILL LEAVE YOU SHAKEN LONG
AFTER THE ENGINE STOPS.

I couldn't put this book down for the first half but then it became a bit repetitive, but that could be because in 2001 i saw a movie by the same name with the same basic premise.
