“

Imagine you’re trapped on a deserted, low-budget film set in the middle of a forest, miles from anywhere. Pacy, witty and tense, this thriller will have you laughing one moment and screaming the next. Blair Witch meets Fleabag.

What the Critics are Saying

'Pure nerve-shredding suspense from the first page to the last. Once I'd started reading I could. Not. Stop.'

Erin Kelly

'Catherine Ryan Howard is a master thriller writer and RUN TIME is up there with the best, as the movie set of nightmares she so evocatively conjures starts to turn on its lead actress. The twisty, ingenious plotting, and atmospheric location make for a deeply chilling and unputdownable read. I didn't want it to end!'
