The Last Party

De: A. R. Torre

Narrado por: Amy Bentley, Will Damron, Neil Hellegers, Ellen Quay

A loving mother. A notorious murderer. They both have reasons to hide their secrets in a novel of escalating shock and suspense by New York Times bestselling author A. R. Torre.

Perla Wultz lives with her husband, Grant, and their precious daughter, Sophie, in a gated Pasadena community. Affluent, sociable, and accomplished, Perla plays the part of loving wife and mother to perfection. It seems an ideal life, if not for a decades-old crime that has become Perla’s dark and consuming secret obsession.

Twenty-three years ago, Leewood Folcrum confessed to murdering two young girls during a birthday party. Though he’s been condemned to a life sentence, his crime is not forgotten. Not by Perla, nor by an inquisitive doctoral student interviewing Folcrum for his dissertation. He’s getting the killer to open up—about his motives, his confession, and the truth of what really happened on that horrible night.

As the past and the present entwine, the deceptions behind the infamous murder begin to surface. But who’s deceiving who now? And why? And as an ingeniously twisted plan is set in motion, who will be the next to die?

Reseñas de la Crítica

“[E]ven savvy veterans who predict every twist will keep turning the pages compulsively as the mystery curdles into suspense.” —Kirkus Reviews

Not the authors best

The narration was excellent. A book performed, not just read. Excellent work.

It really felt like this was going to be an excellent book, but it fell short of the author's usual work.
It kept me entertained for a good few hours, but the third quater proved to be disappointing and the fourth quarter did not save it.

Held My Interest…

This story did hold my interest all the way through. However, while it started out quite good, it slowly devolved into a disappointing degree of silliness. 😕

The narrators (one male, one female) were pretty good, with the female narration far superior.

Would I recommend this book? I would say it’s okay for light listening, if you are in the mood for something not too taxing on the brain!

Predicable

It was a fun drama-fueled story but it was very predictable. The narrators were great though!

Had Me Hooked!

The storytelling in this book is fast paced and kept me wanting more! Shocking and twisty, I loved every second of it!

The twists!

Such a great twisty thriller! It’s been a long time since I finished a book in a day. I could not put it down!

Sick sick sick!

Wow! What a twisted demented ride! Check your trigger warnings! The dark world that Alessandra creates in mind boggling😳

Loved it!!!

another good one by A R Torre! Good character development, even if a bit predictable of the narcissistic main character. Big twisty at the end!
