In Red River Road, we meet Katy Sweeney, who is looking for her sister Phoebe. Phoebe has been missing for a year, three weeks into her solo van life trip along the coast of Western Australia. Katy is retracing her sister’s steps to discover what happened to her, as she finds it hard to believe she could disappear without a trace. Along the way, Katy meets Beth, who is on the run from her past, and the two decide to band together to see this journey through. They have no idea that they will find the answers they seek and answers to questions they didn’t even know they had.

Anna Downes has developed an interesting premise. The story itself felt a bit drawn out, with a pretty quick wrap-up at the end. Wyatt’s parts of the story were relatively confusing and didn’t make much sense when you got to the finale. However, it is a thought-provoking read on how we attempt to protect ourselves and what female solo travel is like. If you enjoy slow-burn thrillers, this book is for you.
