The Last Thing He Told Me - Book Review

The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave

When Hannah is handed a note that says, “protect her”, she does just that. Her husband Owen has gone missing, she is left with her stepdaughter Bailey, a teenager with an attitude, and Hannah must find to a way to figure out what just happened. She is on rocky ground with Bailey, but vows to do whatever it takes to keep her safe. When the Marshalls and FBI come knocking, and Hannah does not know who to trust, she has one choice and that is to run. When she finds out that her husband really is not who he said he was, she trusts her instincts and gets deeper into the web of deceit. Will Hannah end up trusting the authorities, or will she turn to the one man who has the power to destroy them but also the power to keep them safe.

This was such an amazing story. I loved the relationship between Hannah and Bailey and how they had to learn to trust each other to find out what really happened to Owen. As much as the story was about the disappearance of Owen, it was about a relationship between a stepmother and daughter. There were many surprises along the way as the mystery unravels which I loved. I could not put this book down. Laura Dave is a new author for me, but I will definitely be picking up her other novels to read as I adored her writing style. My thanks to Simon & Schuster Publishing, Netgalley and Laura Dave for an advanced copy of the book to read and review in exchange for my honest opinion.
