Violet Is Nowhere (The Jolvix Episodes)
Two strangers. One phone.
Everything on the line.
Rising rock star Violet is kidnapped from her Los Angeles home in a near-future dystopia. She wakes up locked in a cabin in the middle of nowhere with a mysterious note and a burner phone that only dials one unfamiliar number.
Construction worker Bud answers a call from his Bay Area apartment and a stranger's on the line claiming to have been kidnapped and locked in a cabin.
The note says they have one week to figure out the connection between them. Otherwise someone out there-or something-will take her life.
A psychological thriller with a sci-fi twist, this book is part of The Jolvix Episodes.

This book is part two in the "Jolvix Episodes" by Faith Gardner. I just read the first one, "Amen, Maxine" which I gave five stars. That was a amazing, anxiety inducing book (Without a doubt one of my favorite books of the year) so I was excited to have the chance to read the second one, "Violet is Nowhere"
This one features Violet, a musician in a rock band who awakens in a deserted house she has no memory of and finds she is locked inside with one phone which can only dial one number. That number is Bud, a construction worker from Texas now living in the Bay area. They have no idea who each other are but have one week to find the connection or something will take her life.
This one goes back in forth with POVs between Bud and Violet and while overall I didn't like it as much as "Amen, Maxine" it did have the anxiety and sense of dread and doom that we saw in "Amen, Maxine" Faith Gardner is truly gifted in writing phycological suspense as we quickly are put in the middle of Bud and Violet as they try and figure out who the other person is and why they are connected before time runs out for Violet.
This one is a very slow burn which is why I didn't like it as much as Amen, Maxine but still really good and the start of a very good series for Faith Gardner.
I really appreciate Mirror House Press for allowing me to review this book and it is already published so go read it!
