Thin Air

De: Kellie M. Parker

Narrado por: Bailey Carr

Eight hours. Twelve contestants. A flight none of them might survive. A flight to Paris full of teenagers seeking opportunity turns deadly in this suspenseful, locked-door YA thriller. Perfect for fans of Diana Urban, Karen McManus, and Jessica Goodman.

Seventeen-year-old boarding school student Emily Walters is selected for an opportunity of a lifetime—she’ll compete abroad for a cash prize that will cover not only tuition to the college of her choice, but will lift her mother and her out of poverty.

But almost from the moment she and 11 other contestants board a private jet to Europe, Emily realizes somebody is willing to do anything to win. Between keeping an eye on her best friend’s flirty boyfriend and hiding her own dark secrets, she’s not sure how she’ll survive the contest, much less the flight. Especially when people start dying…

As loyalties shift and secrets are revealed, Emily must figure out who to trust, and who’s trying to kill them all, before she becomes the next victim.

Murder Mistory

I loved it, the turn in who's the killer. I thought it was somebody else then who it was. Also how did they had the killer? very good and impressive 👏

Great Plot and Suspense

Well written / intriguing idea. It.'s one of those books where you can't wait to read more. I bought the Audible version and the reader was excellent.

I Do Not Recommend

The writing was flowery, soppy, and packed with adjectives. Some of the lines she inserted made me cringe. They seem have been only inserted to make the book seem more relevant. The only thing good I have to say about this book is I did not correctly identify the killer. The book did not treat witnessing gruesome death as a psychologically significant event. The characters are witnessing a gory crime scene , then casually laughing and playing cards the next. With that kind of behavior, it might have made more sense for all of them to be hardened psychopath killers. the plot and descriptions are not well thought out. For example, after the tortured stress and sweat of close to a day of fearing for their lives, the narrator still describes her love interest as having a comforting citrusy scent, instead of the disgusting musk of stale terror.
