THE CHOICE by D. L. Wood, Reviewed by Rebecca Maney

Deadly Decisions Collection

REBECCA'S REVIEW:
 "I can choose to keep living my life the way it is, not knowing those answers, or I can open the letter."
Choices. Life-changing, perhaps? The one that Sadie Miles is about to make could be the best or the worst decision of her life.

Living from paycheck to paycheck, Sadie had just about figured out how to make ends meet, even while assuming guardianship of her best friend's son. When a cryptic message on the outside of an envelope is slipped under the door of her duplex, rabid curiosity prompts Sadie to follow the enclosed directions and literally set sail towards an unknown future. Her dilemma? Even if she finds the answers to a multitude of questions, will she still be alive when she arrives at her final destination? Someone aboard the luxury yacht is playing a deadly game of elimination.

Don't be surprised if you catch yourself holding your breath through-out this entire voyage, thank goodness for a bit of hopeful romance! . . . or should you even trust him?

BackCover Blurb:
What if a single letter could change everything you thought you knew about yourself?

Sadie Miles has built a life she can be proud of in Nashville, raising her best friend’s young son and pushing through every struggle that comes her way. But when an unsigned letter arrives at her door, she’s faced with a decision: ignore the letter and continue as is or take a risk to uncover the truth about her past—a truth she’s been chasing her entire life.

Following the letter’s cryptic instructions, Sadie finds herself aboard a luxury yacht, sailing down the eastern seaboard with strangers who share only one common goal: claim the fortune that awaits at the journey’s end. As the waves churn, so does the tension and when tragedy strikes, it becomes clear that someone will do anything to ensure they’re the last one standing.

Amidst the growing threat, Sadie’s only possible ally is the enigmatic lawyer, Liam Forrester—a man whose loyalties are as uncertain as the stormy seas around them, and who is as much of an unknown as the rest.

With Sadie on course to be the next victim, she must navigate treacherous waters both literally and figuratively. Can she survive until the end of the journey, or will she become another casualty of the deadly undertow of deceit and danger?

Buckle up for a suspenseful, slow-burn thriller that escalates to a heart-pounding conclusion—where every choice could be your last.
