INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“This eerie thriller…can stand next to Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House and Stephen King’s The Shining.” —Booklist (starred review)

New York Times bestselling author Megan Miranda returns with a gripping and propulsive thriller that opens with the disappearance of a journalist who is investigating a string of vanishings in the resort town of Cutter’s Pass—will its dark secrets finally be revealed?

Ten years ago, Abigail Lovett fell into a job she loves, managing The Passage Inn, a cozy, upscale resort nestled in the North Carolina mountain town of Cutter’s Pass. Cutter’s Pass is best known for its outdoor offerings—rafting and hiking, with access to the Appalachian trail by way of a gorgeous waterfall—and its mysterious history. As the book begins, the string of unsolved disappearances that has haunted the town is once again thrust into the spotlight when journalist Landon West, who was staying at the inn to investigate the story of the vanishing trail, then disappears himself.

Abby has sometimes felt like an outsider within the community, but she’s come to view Cutter’s Pass as her home. When Landon’s brother Trey shows up looking for answers, Abby can’t help but feel the town closing ranks. And she’s still on the outside. When she finds incriminating evidence that may bring them closer to the truth, Abby soon discovers how little she knows about her coworkers, neighbors, and even those closest to her.

Megan Miranda brings her best writing to The Last to Vanish, a riveting thriller filled with taut suspense and shocking twists that will keep you guessing until the very end.

solid fun mystery

if you need a good vacation read, let The Last to Vanish immerse you in an Appalachian mystery. Atmospheric, with a fun, spooky ambiance.

Engaging Story

I loved this book! It was easy to follow, had likable characters, great description of small town life. The mystery held me to the end.

Keeps you thinking!

Keeps you thinking who is it?! I enjoyed the storyline. Wish there was a little more romance to it

Well paced, protagonist is likable!

I finished this book during Labor Day weekend 2022, love that! Good story, big reveal came at just the right time! Enjoyable weekend read👍🏽

Great twists

I enjoyed this story because of the surprising switches of focus. Well written, and the narrator’s voice was calming.

Good Book, Very Very Slow Start

The book would have been great, but I found myself realizing the first 23 chapters said a whole lot of nothing. Could have been up into 2 chapters. Reminds me of a high school paper, that you rephrase the same sentence multiple times, but not really saying anything of importance.

Intriguing

I loved listening to this interesting story. I coldness of the read just made it more intriguing.

Very Repetitive

I felt like this whole story could have been cut in half timewise had there not been so much repetitiveness about the The town not excepting newcomers, the vibe that the mountains gave off, And Abigail’s imagination of the people that had died, where they’ve been now where they had stood. The story was good. It just took forever to get to the point.

Boring narrator! Decent story.

My favorite genre but listening to it was dull. No emotion. Probably better to read the text than listen.

Slow start, good ending, boring narrator

I liked the story though it took a little while to really get moving, but the narrator was almost impossible to listen to - monotonous and no emotion.
