The Last Resort by T.J. Emerson
4.0
The Last Resort draws you in from the very first page with its inviting portrayal of a secluded Cyprus getaway – the perfect escape for the protagonist to retreat to. However, this paradise comes at a high cost, and the financial pressures mount up, leaving you wondering how far the character will go to hold onto this dream home.
When all seems lost, a shocking offer presents a moral dilemma: murder to keep the house. This unexpected twist ramps up the stakes and suspense very masterfully. As a reader, you can’t help but devour the pages to discover whether desperation wins out over the conscience.
While I won’t spoil the ending, the author provides a thrilling trajectory toward the finale with many hair-raising moments. The tension-filled premise and the high-risk decisions maintain the momentum and will keep thriller fans rapidly turning pages.
With its serene setting belying darker secrets and the riveting suspense, The Last Resort delivers an addictive psychological thriller with moral complexity. It’s a 4-star escape into a twisted paradise that stays with you for long after the final page. I highly recommend this to all you thriller fans.
