The last murder at the end of the world by Stuart Turton

Having enjoyed several other Stuart Turton books, I was excited to try this one. I was totally shocked as this is totally different to any of his other books – however I loved it. Brilliant, original, well written, just so clever.

The Islanders are stranded on a small Island surrounded by ‘The Fog’ which would kill them if it wasn’t kept at bay. There are 3 Scientists on the Island too, and they are charged with keeping the fog at bay. However when one of the scientists is murdered, one of the Islanders is charged with solving the murder – and if the murder isn’t solved within 92 hours, the fog will smother the island  and kill all the inhabitants. Unfortunately, none of the Islanders remember what happened that night, as their memories have been wiped – even the murderer doesn’t remember.

This book is so exciting, full of twists and turns. You are drip fed astounding new information all through the book. I couldn’t put it down.
