ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"Survive the Night," by Riley Sager, is a gripping thriller that follows Charlie Jordan, a college student reeling from the murder of her best friend, Maddy. Haunted by guilt and unable to remember crucial details about the night of the murder, Charlie decides to leave campus and go home to Ohio. She accepts a ride from a fellow student named Josh, and as they embark on their journey, Charlie finds herself questioning Josh's true intentions and grappling with unsettling “movies” playing out in her mind. As the night progresses, Charlie's paranoia intensifies, fueled by Josh’s evasive behavior and unsettling coincidences that blur the lines between reality and her own fragmented memories. The novel explores themes of trauma, guilt, the unreliable nature of memory, and the perilous journey of self-discovery.
