One Last Secret by Adele Parks is the must-read thriller this summer.
Dora is an escort who is about to retire but there is just one more job she has been asked to do. A week away in the South of France with a client pretending to be his girlfriend, easy money soaking up the sun, what could possibly go wrong??
This was the perfect summer read and if life hadn't got in the way I could have inhaled it in one sitting. In true Parks style she puts a spin on the storyline just when you think you know where the novel is heading. The twists and turns were much appreciated and added to the ever evolving plot.
I loved hearing Dora's backstory and her relationships with her clients, family and friends. I was totally invested in her as a character and was routing for her to find her way out of the nightmare she finds herself in. The ending was completely shocking, tied up all the loose ends but still left an element of hope and curiosity. A very clever novel which I thoroughly enjoyed.
An utterly compelling read which I highly recommend.
