Description

About the Book:

At seventeen, Lenora Hope was accused of murdering her entire family in one horrific night in 1929—an event that shook the Maine coast and became the stuff of macabre nursery rhymes. Though suspicion shadowed her for decades, the truth was never proven. Since that night, Lenora has lived in isolation at Hope’s End, the crumbling cliffside mansion where it all happened.

It’s now 1983, and Kit McDeere—a disgraced home-health aide with secrets of her own—is assigned to care for the now mute and wheelchair-bound Lenora. Using only an old typewriter to communicate, Lenora makes Kit an irresistible offer: I want to tell you everything.

As Lenora begins to recount the night of the murders, Kit finds herself drawn deeper into a twisted web of family secrets, betrayal, and deception. But as the truth edges closer, Kit begins to question if she’s helping a misunderstood victim—or if the frail woman beside her is hiding something deadly.

Riley Sager’s The Only One Left is a spine-tingling gothic thriller, where every shadow hides a secret and every keystroke might be the last. Perfect for fans of Verity and The Haunting of Hill House.
