Last Breath: The heart-stopping new thriller from the author of ISOLATION ISLAND
About this ebook
Freediving champion Alyssa hasn't returned to her lakeside home in Finland since her best friend Tilda drowned there under the ice. Officially, it was a tragic accident, just like the one that claimed Alyssa's father years before. But Alyssa has never believed that was the whole story.
When a family emergency forces her back to the remote town she left behind, old questions begin to resurface. Determined to get answers, Alyssa starts digging into the past. Yet in a community where everyone knows everyone, nobody wants to talk.
Then the warnings begin: threatening messages, sabotaged equipment, strangers watching from the shoreline.
As the anniversary of Tilda's death approaches, Alyssa closes in on a secret far darker than she ever imagined. But the closer she gets, the more dangerous her search becomes. And deep beneath the ice, the truth is still waiting to surface.
