Description

A New York Times bestseller from Jason Rekulak, author of Hidden Pictures, The Last One at the Wedding is a domestic suspense novel about family, privilege and the secrets hiding behind a seemingly perfect wedding.

Frank Szatowski has not spoken to his daughter, Maggie, in three years. When she suddenly calls and invites him to her wedding in New Hampshire, he sees it as a chance to repair their relationship and finally make things right.

But when Frank arrives, he discovers that Maggie is marrying Aidan Gardner, the son of a famous tech billionaire, at an isolated and extremely luxurious private estate. Feeling completely out of place, Frank tries to focus on reconnecting with his daughter and getting to know the family she is about to join.

His unease grows quickly. Aidan is withdrawn and difficult to read, Maggie seems too busy to spend time with him, and the locals are openly hostile towards the Gardner family. The more Frank learns, the more convinced he becomes that something is wrong.

But uncovering the truth could come at a cost. If Frank pushes too far, he risks losing Maggie again, this time for good.

Blending family drama with domestic suspense, The Last One at the Wedding explores estrangement, class, loyalty and the lengths a parent will go to protect a child.
