lots of things don't add up.

still don't get how that one hitchhiker kept finding them. where was Josh hiding their stuff? and whatever happened to the kid they ran over? like I'm sure the dad is itching to kill them all...ya know? for revenge. are they not charged with attempted murder or theft at least? did Josh know the flights were going to be canceled?

I picked this book up because it was a Libby "All Read" selection. I assumed that meant it was really good, but I was wrong. As a thriller, I enjoyed it right until the end, but there were so many loose ends that it left me very unsatisfied.
