Summary
Solve the murder to save what's left of the world.
Outside the island there is nothing: the world destroyed by a fog that swept the planet, killing anyone it touched. On the island: it is idyllic. 122 villagers and 3 scientists, living in peaceful harmony. The villagers are content to fish, farm and feast, to obey their nightly curfew, to do what they’re told by the scientists.
Until, to the horror of the islanders, one of their beloved scientists is found brutally stabbed to death. And they learn the murder has triggered a lowering of the security system around the island, the only thing that was keeping the fog at bay.
If the murder isn’t solved within 92 hours, the fog will smother the island – and everyone on it.
But the security system has also wiped everyone’s memories of exactly what happened the night before, which means that someone on the island is a murderer – and they don’t even know it…
An outstanding high concept murder mystery from the Sunday Times bestselling and Costa Book Award winning author of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle. An ingenious puzzle, an extraordinary backdrop, an audacious solution.

Fantastic narrator
Turton’s book is full of twists and turns and paints a great fantasy backdrop.
I really loved Adjoa Andoh’s narration. That added so much to the experience. So many characters and voices to wrangle! Great job.

Most enjoyable
I snapped this up after reading the blurb, as it sounded exactly my cup of tea. It was just that; a post apocalyptic murder mystery on an island. Adjoa Andoh was fantastic as always. I wish she could read all my audiobooks. She always has such distinct voices for each character, that it is easy to keep track of who's speaking, plus giving extra depth to the characters. The murder mystery part was a little too convoluted at times and I found it a bit difficult to keep track of who did what and when, but there were some well-paced reveals of the island's mysteries along the way, all rounded off with a very satisfying conclusion. I wish Audible had included a pdf of the map that Stuart mentioned in the acknowledgements, partly because it would just be nice to see, but also might have helped keep better track of events.

Excellent! Highly recommended.
I loved this! A perfect blend of sci-fi and murder mystery. The main character was endearing and the narration was very good. I kind of saw the ending coming, but it didn't spoil my enjoyment of the story.

Impossible to enjoy :(
This book, which is good, is read in such a ridiculous, overbearing and annoying way that I find it almost impossible to get through.

Clever story with stunning narration
I love Stuart Turton's puzzle-style novels. Last Murder is clever and well-thought through with just enough information revealed to keep you listening for more. The narration is outstanding and really adds to the story.
