For fans of Joy Ride, The Hitcher, Jeepers Creepers, and No Exit comes a relentless road horror thriller where every mile could be your last.
A family road trip.
One harmless game.
One voice that should never have answered.
When siblings Tessa, Nate, and Chase set out to repair the family they've nearly lost, they expect an uncomfortable drive filled with old memories and unresolved arguments.
Instead, one careless round of Two Truths and a Lie over the CB radio attracts the attention of someone who refuses to let them go.
A voice that doesn't joke.
A voice that never stops listening.
A voice that wants to hunt.
As the miles disappear beneath their tires, the highway transforms into a deadly game of survival. Every passing truck could hide a killer. Every lonely stretch of road becomes another trap. And every decision could be their last.
Because some monsters don't wait in the dark.
They drive beside you.
Fast-paced, brutal, and packed with relentless suspense, Joy Ride: When a Prank Turns Deadly is a psychological road horror filled with high-speed terror, shocking twists, and a relentless game of cat and mouse that will leave you gripping the edge of your seat until the final page.
Continue the nightmare in Joy Ride 2: Deadly Frequencies, coming this September.
