Six friends. Five suspects. One murder.
Savana Caruso and Jesse Melo have known each other since they were kids, so when Jesse texts Savana in the middle of the night and asks her to meet him at Cray’s Warehouse, she doesn’t hesitate. But before Savana can find Jesse, she bears witness to a horrifying murder, standing helpless on the ground as a mysterious figure is pushed out of the fourth floor of the warehouse.
Six teens were there that night, and five of them are now potential suspects. With the police circling, Savana knows what will happen if the wrong person is charged, particularly once she starts getting threatening anonymous text messages.
As she attempts to uncover the truth, Savana learns that everyone is keeping secrets—and someone is willing to do whatever it takes to keep those secrets from coming to light.
The Last One to Fall is a YA msytery involving a night that ends in a death and possibly the wrong person being charged with murder. Savana was a witness to the fall and is sure her friend Jesse is innocent. Can she figure out what really happened that night before it's too late?
I really enjoyed this one. I thought it was a solid mystery and I didn't figure out the ending ahead of time. It was a little slow to start, but it picks up about a third of the way through. The multiple perspectives worked well here. The information you need to know is laid out in a way to really keep what happened that night a true msytery until the end of the book. The characters were interesting and not annoying teens. I do recommend this one to any lover of YA mysteries.
