What's the Story?
Constantly on the run from well-equipped thugs, Noa, Peter, Teo, and Daisy must live by their wits to survive. But Noa's time is running out, her body ravaged by medical experimentation. The only solution seems to be to return to the scene of the original crime and face down the man behind the conspiracy. Each of the quartet must decide whether to put his or her life on the line for the others.
Is It Any Good?
DON'T LET GO does an exemplary job of wrapping up all the plot threads from Don't Turn Around and Don't Look Now. Although there's an unusual new addition and a surprising resurrection, the cast of characters has been whittled down to its basics, which focuses the suspense and keeps the narrative running smoothly.
The seemingly endless series of cliffhangers might feel a little exhausting for some readers, but author Michelle Gagnon generally does a good job of orchestrating a final showdown that feels credible and delivers a solid punch.
