Last Girl Ghosted by Lisa Unger is an electrifying thriller for the modern age featuring a young woman searching for true, sustaining love in a dating climate cluttered with casual hookups and limited attention spans.
Wren Greenwood has overcome a tragic childhood to build a successful life for herself as an advice columnist with many fans. She hosts a popular podcast and lives in a beautiful, dilapidated brownstone in Manhattan. With no family and only a few close friends, her past is neatly boxed up and shelved away in her hometown of The Hollows outside New York City. When she meets Adam on the dating site Torch, their immediate connection blossoms into blissful romance--until just a few months later, Adam ghosts her, all traces of his digital existence erased. Desperate to find the man she thinks might be the love of her life, Wren stumbles into a dark mystery that forces her back to the haunting past she's tried all her life to escape.
Unger's fans will enjoy meeting Bailey Kirk, the handsome private detective whose investigation of a missing-persons case sets him on a spectacular collision course with Wren. A bestselling author, Unger (Confessions on the 7:45; The Stranger Inside) continues to thrill readers with fresh, original stories built around a familiar exploratory theme: Can one really escape one's past? What happens to the traumatized child when they grow up? Last Girl Ghosted will be happily devoured by readers with an appetite for titillating murder mysteries crafted with a contemporary spin. --Shahina Piyarali, reviewer
