4.5 STARS

Finding a decent Prime First Reads is challenging, so I was pleasantly surprised to enjoy THE LAST MORNING as much as I did.

Short chapters with multiple points of view, labeled The Mother, The Father, The Teacher, The Cop, The Ex Wife etc told the story in the way that made nearly everyone a suspect. Usually I am not drawn books with so many POVs, but THE LAST MORNING cleverly labeled each short chapter with the narrator, so keeping track of who was telling the story was easy.

Most of the suspicion came from The Husband, Allen’s past, though most of the characters were less than forthcoming. I changed who I thought to be the perpetrator multiple times throughout the book.

THE LAST MORNING is the first book in a new series. Sign me up for book two.
