Blurb
Two teenage girls on the run with fake IDs and a beater car...what could go wrong?
Emmy has always been impulsive. She is no longer a minor and has aged out of foster care. When her best friend, Amber, is the target of a perverted uncle who lives in the basement of her group home, they plan her escape.
They head for Canada, where Amber will be safe, and the foster care system can no longer control their lives. When they come across a whitewater rafting brochure, they decide to take a detour for one last adventure before leaving the country. Emmy and Amber have no idea it will be a decision that will forever change their fates.
The rafting town is so far in the middle of nowhere that Emmy's car radio catches nothing but static. They consider turning around until a truck pulls up, loaded with hot whitewater rafting guides and rubber rafts--just the fun they were looking for. Ignoring every instinct, they turn off the pavement and follow the truck down an isolated dirt road. They end up in Lodell, the town where a girl went missing the previous summer...and she will not be the last.
My Opinion
Dead Drift by Kelly Romo is an interesting and riveting mystery thriller. At first the plot did not drew my attention, but after a few pages it turned out to be a rather exciting one. With all the deaths happening, the author perfectly focused the plot around Emmy. Emmy's character is well written with all the high and lows of life, and still holding on. The real show comes toward the end. I enjoyed the book. I can say that it is one of those thrillers which you can finish within a day, as the mystery grips you and you cannot put the book down.
I would like to give the book 4 stars. Thanks to Rachel's Random Resources for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book.
