The Last One at the Wedding
ByPublisher Description
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
From the author of the runaway hit, Hidden Pictures, comes a stunning new work of domestic suspense
“Part conspiracy thriller, part family drama, The Last One at the Wedding kept my heart racing and my mind reeling.” ―Riley Sager
"The ultimate middle-class Dad battles the 1% for his daughter's soul in the best thriller I've read all year." ―Grady Hendrix
Frank Szatowski is shocked when his daughter, Maggie, calls him for the first time in three years. He was convinced that their estrangement would become permanent. He’s even more surprised when she invites him to her upcoming wedding in New Hampshire. Frank is ecstatic, and determined to finally make things right.
He arrives to find that the wedding is at a private estate—very secluded, very luxurious, very much out of his league. It seems that Maggie failed to mention that she’s marrying Aidan Gardner, the son of a famous tech billionaire. Feeling desperately out of place, Frank focuses on reconnecting with Maggie and getting to know her new family. But it’s difficult: Aidan is withdrawn and evasive; Maggie doesn’t seem to have time for him; and he finds that the locals are disturbingly hostile to the Gardners. Frank needs to know more about this family his daughter is marrying into, but if he pushes too hard, he could lose Maggie forever.
An edge-of-your-seat thriller that delves deep into the heart of one family, The Last One at the Wedding is a work of brilliant suspense from a true modern master.

“At the start, I was completely hooked. Jason Rekulak’s storytelling is gripping, and the premise felt so promising. His narration kept me on the edge of my seat, and the vivid setting made me feel like I was right there in the story. I genuinely thought this was going to be a solid 5-star read.
However, somewhere in the middle, the plot started to shift, and by the end, it felt more like a drama than the thriller I was expecting. I don’t mind emotional depth in a story—it was heartfelt, and I can appreciate that—but the shift in tone made it feel like I was reading two different books. I went in expecting a thriller, but what I got was something else entirely.
That said, I still enjoyed it overall. It’s just that after Hidden Pictures, which spooked me (even though I’m not a fan of supernatural elements), I had really high expectations for another gripping thriller. While The Last One at the Wedding wasn’t exactly what I was looking for, Rekulak’s writing remains strong, and I’ll definitely check out his other works. It’s just a shame he only has three novels so far!”Maddie :)
