CHEVY STEVENS has garnered acclaim from literary giants, including Stephen King who called THOSE GIRLS “incredibly scary and suspenseful” and Gillian Flynn who called STILL MISSING “utterly absorbing.”
The acclaimed and beloved author of Dark Roads is back with her most heart-racing thriller yet.
On the remote Canadian highways in 1976, Tom and Alice are on a road trip to repair their marriage and heal the wounds of recent tragic events. An RV is their home and a leisurely adventure is what they believe they need. Early on their journey, they meet "Ocean" and "Blue," a painfully young and desperate couple who could use their help.
Blue is pregnant and the two are hitchhiking their way across the country. Out of kindness, Tom and Alice offer them a ride and soon, the foursome seem like old friends. Until Alice discovers that Ocean and Blue are really named Jenny and Simon. And Jenny and Simon have left a wake of blood and destruction behind. Now, Alice and Tom are their prisoners, forced into increasingly dangerous situations as they traverse the country.
But Jenny and Simon are not telling the whole truth and as one of them descends more deeply into madness, the question becomes: who is the hunter and who is being hunted?
About the Author

New York Times bestselling author, CHEVY STEVENS grew up on a ranch on Vancouver Island and she still lives on the island with her husband and daughter. For most of her adult life she worked in sales, first as a rep for a giftware company and then as a Realtor. While holding an open house one afternoon, she had a terrifying idea that became the inspiration for Still Missing. Chevy eventually sold her house and left real estate so she could finish the book. Still Missing went on to become a New York Times bestseller and winner of the International Thriller Writers Award for Best First Novel.
When Chevy isn’t working on her next book, she’s hiking with her two dogs on her favorite mountain trails and spending time with her family. Chevy’s current obsessions are vintage airstreams, all things mid-century modern, Hollywood memoirs, and stand-up comedians–not necessarily in that order. Her books, including Those Girls , which Stephen King called “incredibly scary,” have been published in more than thirty countries and optioned for film. Her seventh novel, Dark Roads, was released in 2021 and her eighth upcoming novel, THE HITCHHIKERS to be released Oct 2025. WEBSITE

An Elevator Ride QA with Chevy Stevens
and THE HITCHHIKERS
Coming Oct, 2025!
QUICK NOTE:
I loved loved loved everything about THE HITCHHIKERS! Coming October 2025! As a mega long-time fan of Chevy Stevens (I have read all her books)—my absolute favorite. It's a thriller with heart like nothing you will ever read. Alice and Jenny stole the show, and I read it in two sittings. I never jump this far ahead with ARCs, but everything gets put to the side when you snag a Chevy Stevens ARC! She is on fire and at the top of her game. BRAVO.
This dazzling thriller will easily be on my Top 3 Books of 2025! Get this one on your TBR pre-order list now! #CoverCrush. Thank you, @StMartinsPress. A full review will be forthcoming, and there will possibly be a #AuthorElevatorSeries Q&A ride with my favorite author!
