Review: The Last Town by Blake Crouch

Mysterious Reviews: Reviews of New Mysteries, Novels of Suspense, and Thrillers

A Mysterious Review of The Last Town by Blake Crouch. The Wayward Pines Series.

Review summary: This final installment of the Wayward Pines trilogy is both exhilarating and frustrating. It is virtually impossible for readers to not become absorbed in the chaos that ensues when the town's gates are opened, though a bit too much attention is focused on fighting the beasts. Could there be a 4th title in the works? (Click here for text of full review.)

Our rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Last Town Blake Crouch

The Last Town
Blake Crouch
The Wayward Pines Series
Thomas & Mercer (July 2014)

Publisher synopsis: Welcome to Wayward Pines, the last town.

Secret Service agent Ethan Burke arrived in Wayward Pines, Idaho, three weeks ago. In this town, people are told who to marry, where to live, where to work. Their children are taught that David Pilcher, the town’s creator, is god. No one is allowed to leave; even asking questions can get you killed.

But Ethan has discovered the astonishing secret of what lies beyond the electrified fence that surrounds Wayward Pines and protects it from the terrifying world beyond. It is a secret that has the entire population completely under the control of a madman and his army of followers, a secret that is about to come storming through the fence to wipe out this last, fragile remnant of humanity.

From sardines on toast to Bifteck sauté à la Bordelaise — what a leap for struggling artist Polly Smith as she exchanges her garret in 1930s Bloomsbury for Lord Fraddon's extraordinary villa in the South of France.

The invitation comes from her friend Oliver Fraddon and her reasons for leaving foggy London for the brilliant blue skies of Cap Rodoard are her paintings — becoming ever smaller and gloomier; her fiancé — becoming staider and bossier — and most of all, the suddenly and shatteringly acquired knowledge that she isn't Polly Smith.

Polly has been living a lie, and she isn't the only one. None of the glamorous circle of artists, aristocrats, millionaires and miscreants at Rodoard are what they seem. Caught in a web of intrigue, unexplained deaths and art forgery, Polly paints with a new passion — unaware of who she really is, unaware of what she knows, unaware of danger.

Can Polly survive the astonishing revelations that must change her life for ever? And will she finally discover the answer to her question, Who am I?

Someone wants to buy Sylvia and Mike Lyon's Pioneer Square office building in downtown Seattle and whoever it is won't take "no" for an answer. With their building being vandalized and their tenant's being driven away, the Lyon's do what many Seattleites have done for the past six years when they need help: they hire Logan Private Investigations. The mission: find out who's behind the harassment and make them stop.

Danny Logan, Toni Blair, Doc Kiahtel, and Kenny Hale swing into action and soon find themselves facing off against a brutal drug lord- a man with a brilliantly diabolical plan to take his Seattle Ecstasy business nationwide. He's ruthless, driven, and all too willing to resort to violence to accomplish his goals. But now, he has a problem — a problem named Danny Logan.
