From one of the top suspense writers in the genre comes a new, terrifying thriller that is sure to be a contender for the BTB Book of the Year. The Last One is the latest in brilliant novels by the ultra-talented Will Dean, who year after year proves he is one of the best writers doing it today.
Caz Ripley is aboard the RMS Atlantica for a nice relaxing trip across the Atlantic Ocean with her boyfriend Pete. When she wakes up after the first night, she finds that Pete is not next to her. As she walks out into the hallway, she finds all of the cabin doors open, and EVERYONE is gone. Or are they??? How will she navigate this ship safely back to shore? How will she eat? Can she survive?
Chapter-ending cliff hanger after chapter-ending cliff hanger, The Last One is a horrifying, nightmare-inducing thrill ride. It's rare for me to get so sucked in to a novel like this one. There are times I literally checked my heart rate BPM because this novel was so intense. I must admit, when I got through the first chapter or two, I was thinking, "How in the hell is Will going to keep up this pace for a whole book?" But good lord, did he ever! I'm going to need the next few days to mentally decompress.
This book will expose your nerve endings and touch each and every one of them with a hot fire poker. With twist after twist and turn after turn, your head will be spinning, you'll fall ass over teakettle, and you'll never want to board a cruise-liner again. This book is not for the faint of heart and is a gut-wrenching ball of anxiety that will tug at your heart strings, but it is so damn good.
