Great minds can change the world...or leave it in ruins.

When tech prodigy Jade Veverka creates a program to communicate with her autistic sister, she's tapped by a startup to explore the potential applications of her technology. But Jade quickly begins to notice some strange things about the small Kansas town just beyond the company's campus--why are there no children anywhere to be seen, and for that matter, anyone over the age of forty? Why do all of the people living here act uncomfortable and jumpy?

On the way home one night, Jade and her co-worker are run off the road, and their lab and living spaces are suddenly overrun with armed guards, purportedly for their safety. Confined to the compound and questioning what her employers might be hiding from her, Jade fears she's losing control not only of her invention, but of her very life. It soon becomes clear that the threat reaches far beyond Jade and her family, and the real danger is much closer than she'd ever imagined.

著者について

LS Hawker grew up in suburban Denver, indulging her worrisome obsession with true-crime books, and writing stories about anthropomorphic fruit and juvenile delinquents. She wrote her first novel at 14.

Armed with a B.S. in journalism from the University of Kansas, she had a radio show called “People Are So Stupid,” edited a trade magazine and worked as a traveling Kmart portrait photographer, but never lost her passion for fiction writing.

She’s got a hilarious, supportive husband, two brilliant daughters, and a massive music collection. She lives in Colorado but considers Kansas her spiritual homeland. She is the author of The Drowning Game, a USA Today Bestseller, and Body and Bone. Visit her website at LSHawker.com.

End Of The Road

2017年2月28日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

In End Of The Road, author L.S. Hawker weaves another riveting thriller that is full of intrigue, action, drama, suspense, secrets, and murder.

The author takes the reader on a wild roller coaster ride as tech researcher / programmer Jade Veverka tries to protect and maintain control of her invention, a computer program that communicates with Autistic people, but secretive dealings by her employers, and a strangeness about the surrounding small Kansas town, has Jade realizing that things aren't what they seem, and danger lurks around every corner.

As the reader follows Jade's dilemma, the multitude of suspenseful plot twists and turns will give them goosebumps, and keep them sitting on the edge of their seats.

End Of The Road is a fascinating thriller that you won't be able to put down, it will leave you wanting more!

Ms. Hawker has done it again! Another fascinating tale told with many twists and turns. Her grasp of modern day technology, film, pop culture, and the human psyche is unnerving. End of the Road will take you on a startling journey through some of the scariest realities we face in 2017 as well as giving you insight into the world of autism and its effects on the family system. If you enjoy a thriller with true depth, or if you are in anyway a part of or involved with "nerd culture." this book will be a real treat for you. But even if you don't know every scene from Star Trek or Buffy the Vampire Slayer, you will still enjoy the depth of the story and the development of the characters.

In all three of her novels, Hawker has proven herself to be a great architect of perfectly timed twists and turns so that the reader closes the last page feeling like they just rode one of the greatest American coasters - a bit winded, heart pounding, but thrilled by the ride and ready to go again and again. The beginning of the tale is like being pulled up the first big hill of a coaster, link by link, knowing that a big drop is coming, full of anticipation, not really knowing when you will go over the top and be caught up in the thrilling speed of the fall. And then you are off and you better clear your day because you won't be able to get off the ride until you pull into the station. I truly can't wait to see what this author will bring to us next.

High-Tech Suspense

2017年12月31日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

End of the Road was a slow burn, the groundwork went on for close to half the book. Once we hit full speed, I was willing to go the distance, but until then, I almost forced myself to keep going. The plot was very...on the nose, in regards to the dangers of what can be accomplished when technology gets into the wrong hands. I’ll admit, this book further stoked my deep-seated fears regarding the dangers of the wrong people in power. It was published in January 2017, but almost seems prophetic.

For readers looking for a high-tech suspenseful read, End of the Road is a good bet. As for me, I’m headed off to make my tin foil hat.

A Nail-Biting Joyride in All the Best Ways

2017年7月6日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Sometimes, you read a book, and the characters hang around with you long after you turn the last page. Jade, Berko, Elias, and Olivia are unlikely friends who come together through their wits and the impossible circumstances they weather together, and this book made me feel like I was one of their number, too. Though they're definitely all smarter than me.

In all seriousness, this book introduces a diverse cast of interesting characters who defy stereotypes (a Kansas farm girl who was an all-star punter and a CS genius, for example) and make an otherwise pulse-racing story also a ton of fun. It's hard to resist Olivia's self-aware wise cracks or Elias's military charm.

But for all its fun, the book never forgets how much is at stake here, and never lets you, either. Just when you think you've figured out where LS Hawker is headed, she pulls the rug out from under you again and it's a whole new world. Once you get about halfway through this book, look where you've gotten and take a peek at how many pages are left. Yup. A lot happens in this book.

Even with the zippy one-liners, there were definitely more than a few stomach-turning moments and times I wanted to throw the book across the room for making me have feelings. You can definitely feel a little glee from the writer at knowing she's keeping us up through sleepless nights. But I also had to finish it, so I guess the real mark of a great book is how much you can beat it up in anger while still racing through the end?

Even through the winding plot and the fascinating tech background, there's a lot of heart here. In addition to the really cool friendships between the main characters, there's also Jade's autistic sister Clementine, delightful and frustrating in all the right ways in her fox ear headband, not to mention the magnetic Colonel Dan and distance-judgment-impaired Martin. I don't always feel like the characters in thrillers are people I would love to be friends with, but End of the Road made me feel right at home.

Of course, where the book really shines is the way it brings all of these elements into its head-spinning conclusion, but I wouldn't want to give it away.

It's a nerd-fueled, female-led ensemble that plays with the danger, and the fun, of knowing you're smarter than everybody else. And the question is -- can you control it?

Fasten your seatbelt!

So last month I brought LS Hawkers latest book, End Of The Road, with me on my family vacation to Costa Rica.

Big mistake.

I ended up spending parts of two days of our tropical getaway glued to her book. Within the first twenty minutes I said to myself, "Shoot! I already can’t put the book down."

Here’s what I liked her book:
• Hawker keeps the reader hooked from chapter to chapter.
• Her writing is very readable. I only had to look up the definition of one word.
• The details are very Kansas-y.
• The intensity is…intense—and then it gets even more intense the last quarter of the book.
• The ending (about Olivia) made me yell “Nooooo!”

One detail didn’t make sense to me: at one point in the story the “gang” could look back and still see the lights of the compound after walking three miles away from it. Seems like a stretch to me.

Also, the copyeditor probably needed to comb through the manuscript one more time to clean up a few scattered bits and pieces.

But if you’re looking for an escape for a day or two, then buy this book!

WOW!
