PRAISE FOR AMY MCCULLOCH * - - * Amy McCulloch is the queen of the adventure thriller! * CLAIRE DOUGLAS * Enthralling... She has an eye for edgy and unusual settings.... * SUNDAY TIMES * Chills, thrills and intense suspense... * CHRIS WHITAKER *
Brilliantly atmospheric and with relentless pace, Runner 13 is one of the most propulsive adventure thrillers I’ve read. It will leave you gasping for breath. I loved it! -- Liv Matthews Amy McCulloch does it again! Runner 13 is an absolute scorcher of a thriller that examines the lengths we are willing to push ourselves for what's right. Each chapter left me out of breath and desperate to learn what would happen next. Reading this book was a race to the very last page. All in all, Runner 13 proves that no one does an adventure thriller quite like Amy McCulloch. -- SARA OCHS, author of The Resort PRAISE FOR AMY MCCULLOCH * - - * Amy McCulloch is the queen of the adventure thriller! * CLAIRE DOUGLAS * Enthralling...
