Our view
“Survive the Night” has a strong hook, a night drive beside a stranger who may be a killer, but its heroine tests readers’ patience. Complaints about Charlie’s foolish decisions recur, and some find parts of the plot hard to make sense of. For some, the unmasking of the killer and the ending go a fair way to redeem it. It suits those who prize a twist above plausible behaviour.
