This was a thrilling, addictive and fast- paced read with many heart-racing twists that kept me hooked and on the edge of my seat. I love it when a book surprises me, and this one did.

My favourite character was Charlotte I felt like throughout the book she never caught a break and felt sorry for her at times and I hoped things would get better for her.


I’d highly recommend this book it’s a pacy read with an explosive ending perfect for psychological thriller fanatics!

This book is slow to start but gradually picks up pace. There are a few twists and turns but I was disappointed by the ending.

“Her Hiding Place” by Shannon Hollinger, had me on the edge of my seat the entire time! From the very first page, I was hooked. The suspense is absolutely gripping, and Hollinger does a fantastic job of keeping you guessing. Just when I thought I had it all figured out, a twist would come out of nowhere, and I'd be left reeling. The pacing is perfect—just when you think you can catch your breath, something happens that pulls you right back in.

The characters are well-developed and complex, especially the protagonist, who is so relatable and layered. I found myself truly invested in her journey and rooting for her even as the tension built to a boiling point.

What really stood out to me, though, was how unpredictable the plot was. I was never sure what was coming next, and that made the experience of reading this book so thrilling. If you love suspense and enjoy a story with plenty of twists and turns, I cannot recommend Her Hiding Place enough. It’s a wild ride from start to finish, and I couldn’t put it down!

Charlotte is an abused girl. She longs to escape her life. She meets another teenager who lives the same life, same bruises, same injuries. They plan to escape.

Charlotte drives to a remote resort with three year old Alice, in order to work for a living. Alice is hidden in her room, and Charlotte has to sneak food to her. Help comes from an unexpected source, Leo. He gives her food to take to her room, but she has to introduce him to Alice when Alice gets ill.

Then there is a hurricane warning - they have to escape!

Beautifully written - but oh, so emotional and heartbreaking.

The book is hard to read in places, when you read what people do to their children. But I really could not put this book down, and read far into the night.
Suspenseful and a real page turner.

Thanks to Netgalley and Bookouture for the ARC.

This author has given me lots of reading pleasure already and she did it again with this excellent story.

A luxurious resort on an island... This is what lots of people dream about and for Charlotte, the main character, it's an escape route too, but not the same one the guests will seek once they arrive...

She thinks she has found the perfect spot, but then the weather decides to interfere and lots of things start to go wrong. The sunny islands transforms into a spooky and creepy one.

It's hard to see the wood through the trees and she does not know who to trust anymore. To be able to survive she has to make a choice though. Did she pick the ones she can really count on or does she completely miss the ball?

I found this a super suspenseful story and that is not only due to the locked-room kind of thriller, but also because of the incredible talent the author possesses. 

This book is just unputdownable and I was dragged into it from the very beginning until the last word. I loved cute Alice and admired Charlotte's strength. 

I love it when a plan comes together in the end. 5 stars

Thank you
