Her closest friend is plagued by sadness and mistrust the summer after a rich young summer visitor passes away inexplicably.
Littleport, Maine, has long seemed like two distinct towns: a modest harbour hamlet for the year-round people whose livelihoods depend on providing services to the affluent, and an excellent holiday spot for the wealthy, whose summer houses along the beach.
Usually, a local and a summer girl don't become strong friends, but that's exactly what happens with Sadie Loman, a tourist, and Avery Greer, a Littleport native. The sisters remain inseparable every summer for over ten years—that is, until Sadie is discovered dead. Even though the police declare the death to be a suicide, Avery can't help but believe that certain people in the neighbourhood, including Parker, Sadie's brother, and a local detective, are blaming her. Avery wants to clear her reputation before the truth is twisted against her, and she believes that someone is more knowledgeable than they are letting on.
A clever, twisted novel, The Last House Guest masterfully examines the complexity of female friendships and the illusive nature of memory.
