The Last Flight

A Novel

De: Julie Clark

Narrado por: Khristine Hvam, Lauren Fortgang

"The Last Flight is thoroughly absorbing - not only because of its tantalizing plot and deft pacing, but also because of its unexpected poignancy and its satisfying, if bittersweet, resolution. The characters get under your skin." (The New York Times Book Review)

Two women. Two flights. One last chance to disappear.

Claire Cook has a perfect life. Married to the scion of a political dynasty, with a Manhattan townhouse and a staff of 10, her surroundings are elegant, her days flawlessly choreographed, and her future auspicious. But behind closed doors, nothing is quite as it seems. That perfect husband has a temper that burns as bright as his promising political career, and he's not above using his staff to track Claire's every move, making sure she's living up to his impossible standards. But what he doesn't know is that Claire has worked for months on a plan to vanish.

A chance meeting in an airport bar brings her together with a woman whose circumstances seem equally dire. Together they make a last-minute decision to switch tickets - Claire taking Eva's flight to Oakland, and Eva traveling to Puerto Rico as Claire. They believe the swap will give each of them the head start they need to begin again somewhere far away. But when the flight to Puerto Rico goes down, Claire realizes it's no longer a head start but a new life. Cut off, out of options, with the news of her death about to explode in the media, Claire will assume Eva's identity, and along with it, the secrets Eva fought so hard to keep hidden.

For fans of Lisa Jewell and Liv Constantine, The Last Flight is the story of two women - both alone, both scared - and one agonizing decision that will change the trajectory of both of their lives.

Great story

Definitely worth the read- suspense, really good character development. I truly felt for the characters. Very original story with no romance or love interest- just female friendships and women who are trying to recover from difficult pasts. Insightful. Well written.

Starts with a BANG ends with WOW

Story starts with a bang and kept me guessing the whole time. I had no problem finishing this book. And even though it came recommended I was skeptical. Performance was great, pacing was good. A story that STARTS with a plane crash, fake identities and a great mystery told both before and after the event until you get the truth.

Loved this story!

Julie Clark tells a fantastic story of 2 women who meet and swap identities. But one of them is in a fatal plane crash. This story is TWISTY and so good!

I was surprised

Great story with a twist. Excellent performance.
I definitely recommend it for readers who enjoy a good mystery with feminine issues.

Interesting twists

I liked this book from the start. I enjoyed the two characters - their quest for freedom, good ending too!!
