About this listen
One Wrong Turn is a heart-pounding thriller from C. M. Ewan, acclaimed author of The House Hunt, The Interview, A Window Breaks and the half-a-million-copy bestseller Safe House.
Late at night . . .
Abi and Ben are driving home down foggy country roads, arguing about having had to cut short their weekend away when they take a wrong turn. Abi’s driving, but her eyes leave the road for a moment as she says something to Ben – just as he gasps. A man is in front of the car, waving a torch. Abi swerves to avoid him.
You see a family stranded . . .
Ben tells her they should stop and go back, but Abi refuses. It’s dark, the roads are isolated and they don’t know this stranger. But, as Abi continues on, they see a broken-down car. Every instinct is still telling Abi to drive by, but then she notices the woman holding a car seat with a baby in it.
Would you stop?
For a moment, Abi hesitates, but they can’t leave a mother and baby on the side of the road. Agreeing to give the family a lift, they set off again. But now these strangers are inside their car and it might be the worst mistake they have ever made . . .
C. M. Ewan: Everyday situations. Deadly consequences.

So gripping!
I tore through this. Grabbed me on page 1 and didn’t let up until the tense final scenes. Loved all the twists and turns (literal and metaphorical) and really felt for the characters. One to devour!

Driving and then a bit more driving
I love many of the author’s previous books, so I’m not sure what happened here. Well, I do, actually; it’s laden with cliches and eye-rolling moments, and is incredibly dull for a thriller.
We experience the (incredibly long) car journey in real time, and are given a blow by blow account of each anguished thought. This gets tedious and repetitive very quickly, yet nothing much actually happens until the OTT final showdown.
It’s more about the journey than the destination. But the characters are wet, and the weather is foggy - which doesn’t leave very much else. Plenty of descriptions of the old VW Polo’s interior, that’s about it.
