Description
No Turning Back by Steve Frech is a gripping thriller that explores the depths of desperation and the extremes one man will go to protect his family.
Lucas and Julia are about to become parents, but there's a secret Lucas hasn't shared with his wife. Two months ago, he lost his job and has been secretly working as a rideshare driver to make ends meet.
This secret is about to become the least of his problems. One evening, while working, Lucas picks up a passenger in the Hollywood Hills. This man, Damon, places a gun to Lucas's head and instructs him to drive.
Damon has a hit list of men he plans to kill, requiring Lucas's involuntary assistance. Lucas faces an impossible dilemma: comply and keep his family safe at the expense of others, or resist and put his own wife and daughter in jeopardy.
Lucas's life is spiralling out of control and is set to change forever. The only question is, will he survive the night?
