Last One To Die (Paperback)
Cynthia Murphy (author)Published: 07/01/2021
With elements of both slasher movies and classic whodunits, Murphy’s dark, sinuous YA thriller focuses on a teenage girl desperately trying to stay one step ahead of a serial attacker.
One of Us is Lying meets This Lie Will Kill You but with a chilling supernatural twist that will keep you guessing until the very end . . .
Young, brunette women are being attacked in London. 16-year-old, Irish-born Niamh has just arrived for a summer of freedom, and quickly discovers that the girls being attacked look frighteningly similar to her. But Niamh is determined not to let her fear destroy her Summer.
But can her new friends be trusted? Will she be able to stay ahead of the attacker? Or will she be next?
Packed with voice-driven whodunit storytelling, and a retro slasher-movie feel reminiscent of cult classics Scream and Urban Legend, this dark, pacy, and irresistibly-creepy debut really has something for everybody!
