My review:
This is one that I don’t really want to say too much. The plot is fascinatingly clever and well thought out.
Our main characters are Stephanie & Jasmine. We, also, hear from Stephanie’s coworkers, Jasmine’s boyfriend and friends, and a man named, Trent, which help move the story along to it’s shocking conclusion.
Overall, this was a really solid and impressive debut. There was some repetitiveness and I didn’t care for the epilogue, but it was fast paced and I was engaged entirely. You’ll want to add this one to your TBR for sure.
Narration notes:
Holy guacamole ~ 10 narrators!! They all did a fabulous job.

Book blurb:
Stephanie and Jasmine have nothing and everything in common. The two women don’t know each other but are on the same plane. Stephanie is on a business trip and Jasmine is fleeing an abusive relationship. After a few days, they text their friends the same exact messages about the same man—the messages becoming stranger and more erratic.
And then the two women vanish. The texts go silent, the red flags go up, and the panic sets in. When Stephanie and Jasmine are each declared missing and in danger, it begs the questions: Who is Trent McCarthy? What did he do to these women—or what did they do to him?
Twist upon twist, layer upon layer, where nothing is as it seems, The Business Trip takes you on a descent into the depths of a mastermind manipulator. But who is playing who?
