________
When her husband Harry walks out after just six months, a girls' weekend away with two friends seems like just what Sam needs.
But they aren't even halfway to their destination when things start to go wrong: car trouble that just happens to leave them stranded in the town where Harry lives.
And that's only the beginning.
Because there are three things Sam doesn't yet know:
One of her friends is lying about why they're there.
One is lying about who she is.
And one of them will never make it home . . .

Reviews / Votes
Clever, complex and expertly planned -- Rachel Abbott What a clever book, I inhaled every chapter, desperate to find out what was going on. I absolutely loved it! Those cliffhangers! -- Andrea Mara, bestselling author of All Her Fault A brilliantly addictive, tense and twisty thriller about toxic relationships, secrets and lies -- Alice Hunter Full of secrets and twists, The Perfect Escape is a fast-paced, edge-of-your-seat thriller about a group of friends who may not know one another as well as they think. With its eerie setting, unsettling plot, and shocking reveals, this book had me completely captivated from the first page to the very last -- Megan Miranda, author of Such a Quiet Place When three women embark on a trip to forget their broken lives, they become embroiled in the centre of a murder investigation. The Perfect Escape is a clever, locked room mystery that is compulsively readable and impossible to put down! -- Wendy Walker, author of Don't Look for Me Nobody writes twists like Leah Konen-this woman puts Hitchcock to shame. The Perfect Escape is somehow even more fantastic than her stunning debut, One White Lie; her sophomore effort is a gripping, whip-smart, and unforgettable pulse-pounder that left my head spinning. With its intricate plotting and truly shocking reveals, this thriller is both an addictive page-turner and a brilliant examination of female friendship, shame, and betrayals. Thriller lovers: You need this book -- Andrea Bartz The Perfect Escape is the type of captivating, masterfully-constructed thriller you'll consume in a breathless rush-and then flip right back to the beginning to figure out how the author pulled it all off. Konen keeps the shocking twists coming while wringing nail-biting tension out of even the smallest moments. I couldn't put it down! -- Layne Fargo This addictive read has all the elements of a perfect thriller - action packed, creepy and full of twists, it's unputdownable! * My Weekly * A smart thriller that really keeps you guessing * Heat * Praise for Leah Konen -- :More details
