Cameron Prescott has a bad record of choosing the wrong men. One of those men happens to be a dead serial killer. But when new killings occur in their remote town of Tok, Alaska, questions arise concerning Cameron’s late husband and the new man in her life. Will the dead stay dead or will too many old secrets rise up, risking the lives of everyone?

This was such a spooky and chilling read. I thoroughly enjoyed it and loved how the author took me through a journey between hope and certain doom. I was kept on the edge of my seat, which left me wanting more each time I had to put down the book. I read through this book quite quickly. The only critique I have for the book is the last few chapters. The ending was happy and conclusive, but I was just slightly disappointed in the chapters that wrapped up the drama and thrill of the book regarding the killings. Having said that, I still think this is a 5 star read.

I received an audiobook ARC from Spotify Audiobooks and Audrey J. Cole. All thoughts and opinions here are mine and mine alone. 

The audiobook version of this book only made it more enjoyable. The narrator did an excellent job of bringing angst to the story and personifying the characters in a way that enhances the story. I highly recommend the audiobook version of this book. It is perfect for this summer. You will not regret picking up and listening to The Last Hunt!
