**A Reese Witherspoon x Hello Sunshine Book Club Pick and New York
Times bestseller****
A year after a summer guest dies under suspicious circumstances, her
best friend lives under a cloud of grief and suspicion in this
"fast-paced and gripping" (People) thriller filled with "dizzying plot
twists and multiple surprise endings" (The New York Times Book
Review).
Littleport, Maine, has always felt like two separate towns: an ideal
vacation enclave for the wealthy, whose summer homes line the coastline;
and a simple harbor community for the year-round residents whose
livelihoods rely on service to the visitors.
Typically, fierce friendships never develop between a local and a summer
girl--but that's just what happens with visitor Sadie Loman and
Littleport resident Avery Greer. Each summer for almost a decade, the
girls are inseparable--until Sadie is found dead. While the police rule
the death a suicide, Avery can't help but feel there are those in the
community, including a local detective and Sadie's brother, Parker, who
blame her. Someone knows more than they're saying, and Avery is intent
on clearing her name, before the facts get twisted against her.
"A riveting read...from master of suspense, Megan Miranda," (Mary
Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl) The
Last House Guest is a clever, twisty mystery that brilliantly explores
the elusive nature of memory and the complexities of female friendships.
