Audiobook Adventures: Do Not Disturb by Freida McFadden

Welcome back to Audiobook Adventures, where great stories meet great drives. Whether you’re cruising through the mountains, setting up camp for the weekend, or just looking for a new listen that makes the miles fly by, I’ve got a thriller for you that you won’t want to hit “pause” on.

If you were glued to Freida McFadden’s Housemaid series like the rest of us, you’ll love this one. Do Not Disturb delivers that same addictive mix of tension, secrets, and “just one more chapter” energy — perfect for your next road trip or rainy-day escape.


🚗 The Story (No Spoilers!)

The story begins with a woman on the run who finds herself stranded at a remote roadside motel in the middle of a snowstorm. What she’s running from — and what she runs into — unfold in the way only Freida McFadden can deliver: full of twists, suspense, and that deliciously uneasy feeling that you’re not getting the whole story just yet.

It’s atmospheric and intense, but not over-the-top. You can almost feel the cold wind, hear the hum of the motel’s neon sign, and sense that uneasy stillness that comes right before everything changes.


🎧 Why It’s Perfect for an Audiobook Adventure

Do Not Disturb is the kind of book that makes you want to keep driving just to hear what happens next. The audiobook narration is spot-on, with just the right tone to match the story’s eerie, snowed-in setting.

It’s perfect for:

  • Long solo drives when you want to escape into another world
  • Cozy weekends in a cabin or by the fire
  • Listeners who love psychological thrillers that keep you guessing until the very end

McFadden’s writing is sharp and vivid, and the audiobook format makes it even more immersive — like the story’s happening all around you.


🧭 Travel Tie-In: The Setting That Sparks the Imagination

Even though Do Not Disturb doesn’t name a specific location, it gives off serious “snowy mountain motel off a deserted highway” vibes — the kind of place that could be anywhere from the Rockies to the Adirondacks.

It made me think of:

  • Colorado or Wyoming, where scenic drives can suddenly turn snowy and dramatic
  • The Berkshires or Hudson Valley, full of cozy roadside inns and old-fashioned motels
  • Northern Michigan or Wisconsin, where the pine forests feel endless and peaceful

Of course, unlike the story, these are places full of warmth and small-town charm — perfect for curling up with a good audiobook after a day of exploring.

If you’ve ever found yourself driving through quiet backroads in the winter, surrounded by trees dusted in snow and headlights reflecting off icy patches, you’ll feel right at home in the world McFadden creates.


✨ Final Thoughts

Do Not Disturb is suspenseful, gripping, and a little unsettling — in the best possible way. It’s the kind of audiobook that keeps you hooked from start to finish and makes you think twice before checking into a lonely roadside motel.

So grab your headphones, settle in for the ride, and let Freida McFadden take the wheel for a while. Just… maybe stick to well-lit motels this time. 😉
