Review: Freefall

Freefall by Jessica Barry
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Freefall begins with Allison surviving a plane crash, battered and bruised but alive. The only other passenger on the small plane, her fiancé did not survive..... she is in the mountains with few supplies, a little water and not much else.....only a sense that someone is going to try and find her....but she doesn’t want to be found!

Maggie, Allison’s mother, has been told by the local police that her daughter likely died in the crash…but she will not give up hope, she knows her daughter is strong and so sets out on a search for her Allison. At the time of Allison’s fathers death, they became estranged and have had no contact since.

The tale is told from the two perspectives of Allison and Maggie, giving background to both their stories......bleak at times but utterly compelling.

This is a slow burn, with the tension gradually building and building right to the truly heart thumping end...

An exceptional debut novel from Jessica Barry and I will be waiting impatiently for her next endeavour.....
