The world has ended, almost. On a small island the last vestiges of humanity reside peacefully under the guidance of three brilliant but emotionally removed elders. That is until one of the elders dies and slowly the Fog, the misty harbinger of the end of the world, starts creeping towards them. As the clock slowly ticks down, Emory, a voracious and brilliant villager tries to put together the pieces she needs to save humanity, and the people she loves dearly.
The Last Murder at the End of the World was so much more than I imagined it could be. What I love about Stuart Turton is he gives you a page turner you can’t tear yourself away from while still asking you the big questions of: what does it mean to be human, what we do we owe to each other, and are we capable of redemption?
