My Thoughts
"Snow Escape" is a Heart pounding thriller that will keep you up at night and its just in time for Halloween.
I’ll think twice before trying online dating after reading this horror story.

What do you do when your sanity is questioned and you are trapped in your small apartment with a crazy stalker on the loose? Find out what Allegra does in the exciting new thriller by Roberta Goodman “Snow Escape”.
Great storyline and because the situation was so realistic it was that much more frightening. I couldn’t imagine what I would do if I was in that situation, but I highly recommend this book to anyone who loves a good scary story. A great read for a dark and stormy night.
Warning: Not for the faint of heart.
Thanks Katie :) I guess it works to my advantage that Snow Escape was released in October!! I'm hoping everyone who reads it gets a good Halloween scare!!!
