“Drive Time” by Hank Phillippi Ryan

I loved Drive Time!

Drive Time may be Hank Phillippi Ryan’s best novel yet—a stunning and timely plot enhanced by the life-changing events in her investigative reporter’s personal and professional life. A realistic and endearing portrait of a woman trying to have it all. (And if any woman can, that woman is Charlotte McNally.)

Every now and then a character jumps off the page and sits next to you, and that’s what Charlotte McNally did when I read DRIVE TIME. I love this series! DRIVE TIME is actually the fourth book in the series, but I started with it. Charlie drew me in from the first page. Her life’s not simple. Her job as a TV reporter’s not simple. She’s not simple — but she’s no quitter. Hank Phillippi Ryan writes with such clarity and immediacy that the characters and the story feel real. It’s not just the twists and turns of the mystery that are gripping, it’s Charlie herself. All four books are “must reads.”
