The Getaway is a six-part serialized thriller published entirely in 2022. Uncharted Waters, His Happy Place, Belle Mer, Catch Her in a Lie, Shell Game, and Stockholm tell one continuous story of suspense and deception. The serial format keeps each installment short and tense, with cliffhangers driving readers from one part to the next.
The series represents a departure from Luanne Rice’s traditional novel format, breaking the story into bite-sized pieces. The titles progress from the seemingly idyllic to the explicitly dangerous, with Stockholm suggesting a captivity scenario by the end. It is one of Rice’s more plot-driven works, prioritizing tension over the family-relationship themes of her earlier novels.
