The passenger by Lisa Lutz is a mystery and thriller read.
In case you were wondering, I didn’t do it. I didn’t have anything to do with Frank’s death. I don’t have an alibi, so you’ll have to take my word for it...
Forty-eight hours after leaving her husband’s body at the base of the stairs, Tanya Dubois cashes in her credit cards, dyes her hair brown, demands a new name from a shadowy voice over the phone, and flees town. It’s not the first time.
She meets Blue, a female bartender who recognizes the hunted look in a fugitive’s eyes and offers her a place to stay. With dwindling choices, Tanya-now-Amelia accepts. An uneasy―and dangerous―alliance is born.
It’s almost impossible to live off the grid today, but Amelia-now-Debra and Blue have the courage, the ingenuity, and the desperation, to try. Hopscotching from city to city, Debra especially is chased by a very dark secret…can she outrun her past?
This was a really enjoyable read with great characters. I wasn't sure about Tanya but I had to keep reading to find out how and why and if the truth will come out. Highly recommended. 5*. I voluntarily reviewed an advanced copy of this book from netgalley.

Wow! Could not stop reading this one! Blue certainly was not a woman to be messed with, in a Dexter Harris type of way! Great read!

A very quirky mystery that I did not see coming! Suspenseful and enjoyable.
