About the book
Eight self-drive cars set on a collision courseWhen a hacker gains control of the systems of eight self-driving cars, the passengers onboard are faced with a life-or-death situation.
The passengers include a popular TV personality, a pregnant teenager, a disabled veteran, a woman escaping an abusive relationship, an undocumented immigrant, a married couple with children traveling in separate cars, and a man contemplating suicide. As the public is forced to make the decision of who should survive, questions arise about the true identities and intentions of the passengers.
Who lives, who dies? You decide.
Praise for this book
Full of twists, vividly drawn characters you'll love or love to loathe, and pacy action...it's a hell of a ride
With some real jaw dropping moments, it was an edge of your seat read that even surpassed The One
A 1970s disaster movie by way of Black Mirror, with a dash of Michael Crichton... a sleek, exhilarating ride
Marrs is brilliant at twists and for the addicts of adrenaline-fuelled twisty rides, this book really delivers the goods
Provocative, terrifying and compulsive. Another savagely clever near future thriller
