The Last to Know

 Welcome to my review of The Last to Know



My thoughts

Rating: 4
Genre: Suspense
Would I recommend it? Yes
Would I read more by this author? Yes
First off I want to thank the publisher Lake Union Publising as well as Netgalley for letting me read and review this, because with out them I wouldn't have picked it up might not have gave it a try otherwise. What first got my attention was the the title and as well as the cove, and that get me every time , there's something about the title or the cover that makes me want to pick it and read and with this one i'm glade I took the change to request it. Because right from the story it had me wanting to know what  happened and what was going to happen next , its was everything I was hoping it would it would, and that was that  the setting would give it that creepy feeling as well as been well written and  that the pace would keep me turning pages. As for the story itself  the more your read it becomes apparent that everyone in this town has secrets they are still trying to hide and that they will do anything to kept in the dark, and while the story is slow in some places I actually liked it that way and it made it even more creepy , it give it the vibe of been some what gothic . 


A family’s past pursues them like a shadow in this riveting and emotional novel of psychological suspense by the Amazon Charts bestselling author of All the Little Children.

American journalist Rose Kynaston has just relocated to the childhood home of her husband, Dylan, in the English village of his youth. There’s a lot for Rose to get used to in Hurtwood. Like the family’s crumbling mansion, inhabited by Dylan’s reclusive mother, and the treacherous hill it sits upon, a place of both sinister folklore and present dangers.

Then there are unwelcoming villagers, who only whisper the name Kynaston—like some dreadful secret, a curse. Everyone knows what happened at Hurtwood House twenty years ago. Everyone except Rose. And now that Dylan is back, so are rumors about his past.

When an archaeological dig unearths human remains on the hill, local police sergeant Ellie Trevelyan vows to solve a cold case that has cast a chill over Hurtwood for decades.

As Ellie works to separate rumor from facts, Rose must fight to clear the name of the man she loves. But how can Rose keep her family safe if she is the last to know the truth?
