Description
She hoped this girls’ trip would help her heal. Instead, it just might kill her.
Still reeling from her husband’s death, Courtney joins her three best friends on a secluded island in the Florida Keys. But the getaway meant to bring peace quickly spirals into chaos.
First comes a rumor about a woman who was recently killed on the island. Then the property manager is nowhere to be found. When a stranger shows up at the vacation rental and one of the friends goes missing, Courtney starts to wonder if they’ll make it home at all.
There’s no Wi-Fi. No cell service. No way off the island for four days.
But four days is too long to wait for help.
If Courtney wants to survive, she’ll have to fight for her life.
Please note that this is an uncorrected ARC, so you will most likely run across minor typos. Thank you for reading! —Steph

"Nelson knows how to draw readers in, clinch their throats, and hold that grip until the twisty final scene. Last One Out is a stunner that will have everyone talking." —Gregg Olsen, #1 NYT bestselling author of If You Tell
