And when she walks out into the corridor, all the cabin doors are open. To her horror, she soon realizes that the ship is completely empty. No passengers, no crew, nobody but her. The Atlantica is steaming into the mid-Atlantic and Caz is the only person on board. But that’s just the beginning of the terrifying journey she finds herself trapped on in this white-knuckled mystery.
*****
Thank you Simon & Schuster for my copy of The Last One by Will Dean, in exchange for my honest review. This title published August 8, 2023.
The Last One was a masterfully crafted suspense novel that takes readers on an unforgettable journey of mystery aboard a cross-Atlantic cruise gone awry. A fresh take on the locked room mystery, the author has you confined in the tense setting of a ship, where every turn of the page brings new layers of suspense and revelation. The atmosphere of unease was palpable and kept me on the edge of my seat while reading.
As the characters grapple with the unexpected challenges of the voyage, their stories are expertly woven together, creating a web of secrets that begs to be unraveled. The Last One is a thrilling and gripping read that showcases the author’s talent of crafting suspenseful tales from beginning to end.
My Rating: 3/5
Happy Reading,
