The Last Goodbye by Tim Weaver

 

One day ago...


On the night Tom Brenner and his nine-year-old son Leo visit the Seven Peaks theme park, they head straight for the ghost house. They go in. But they don't come out. Somewhere inside the ride, impossible as it seems, the two of them simply vanish.


Forty years ago...


When Rebekah Murphy was three, her mother walked out of their childhood home and never returned. Nearly four decades on, Fiona Murphy is still missing. But then, out of the blue, a letter arrives in the post. It says it's from Fiona.


Now...


Missing persons investigator David Raker is hired by Rebekah to find out if the letter is actually from her mother - and soon makes a connection to the Brenners. But these are mysteries whose secrets were never meant to be found. And with his closest ally under arrest and about to reveal some truths of his own, the danger to Raker is coming from all sides…


I received a copy of this from Netgalley and the publisher Penguin Michael Joseph in return for an honest review.


I first read a Tim Weaver book when I was sent an amazing proof of The Blackbird, and it was his latest book (out of quite a few). I loved it so much i went out and bought all of his books, mostly from charity shops, and now have the full collection. I’m still to read from the start.


The blurb for The Last Goodbye got me wanting to dive into this quickly, and I’m so glad I did! What a story!


So far, Tim is the king of twists, and his latest book does not disappoint. By the end I was messaging my friend with so many shocked faces as I didn’t see any of the twists coming! I love David Raker, and there’s so many times I just want to hug him, he’s been through a lot! I really liked Rebekah, and have found out from a friend that she is the main person in Weavers’ standalone novel Missing Pieces. So that may be next up.


Thanks again to Penguin Michael Joseph and Netgalley for my review copy, and thanks to the author Mr Weaver, as always.
