Summary

Zwei Frauen auf der Flucht。 Eine Entscheidung， die alles verändert。 Und kein Weg zurück。

New York， Flughafen JFK: Claire soll nach Puerto Rico reisen， um ihren Mann， einen ehrgeizigen Politiker， beim Wahlkampf zu unterstützen。 Doch in Wahrheit will sie nichts als fliehen – vor seinen gewalttätigen Übergriffen und der lückenlosen Kontrolle， die er über sie ausübt。 Sie kommt mit Eva ins Gespräch， die bei ihrem schwerkranken Mann Sterbehilfe geleistet hat。 Zu Hause in Kalifornien erwartet sie die Polizei。 Innerhalb weniger Sekunden beschließen sie， die Bordkarten zu tauschen und sich gegenseitig ein neues Leben zu schenken。

Erleichtert landet Claire in Kalifornien。 In Evas Haus gibt es allerdings keine Hinweise auf einen Ehemann。 Dann erfährt sie， dass das Flugzeug nach Puerto Rico abgestürzt ist。 Und kurz darauf entdeckt sie die vermeintlich abgestürzte Eva in einer Fernsehreportage über das Unglück。 Lebendig。 Hat sie die Flucht in das Leben einer Anderen am Ende doch nur in eine Falle gelockt？

Sarah Simpson ，

A solid read。 I enjoyed that there were some smaller mysteries to go along with the main mystery which kept me interested。 And while I figured out one of the main twists， it wasn’t much before the author started to hint to it。 Overall， a good suspenseful novel （but not the kind where you can’t get to sleep at night）。

Paula Hess ，

Good suspense read with an ending that surprised me。

Kimberly McCreight ，

Expertly balances a wildly propulsive story with wonderfully nuanced characters all within a tricky narrative structure， which I flew through in a single sitting。 The well-rounded characters making compromised choices， reflect the longing so many of us have to be able to choose differently mid-stream。 Wonderfully thought-provoking， and deeply comforting。

Tracee ，

Fast-paced and keeps you turning the page。

Tracy Markley ，

Kept me on the edge of my seat through the whole book！

Marlene Bessette ，

I enjoyed the suspense。 So real that drama that some people live！

Elizabeth ，

Exciting thriller with strong women fleeing from very different lives。

Nina Plasterer ，

A real dragSo slow， so boring。 I’m really surprised about the high reviews。 It took me 5 weeks to finish when I can normally finish a book in a few days。 I just couldn’t get into it and dreaded reading it but thought eventually it would get better。 It doesn’t。

Lisa Hallman ，

The suspense kept me glued to the book。 I liked both of the main characters and was fascinated how their lives were so intertwined。 The author is a great story teller。 This was a very original story with lots of twists and turns。

Ann ，

3。5 stars。 This book grabbed me in the beginning and I didn’t want to put it down。 I was psyched for a page turner！ I was riveted by Claire’s story and her escape from her life but as soon as Eva came on the scene， the book kinda lost steam for me。 Started as a 5， but overall， 3。5。

Peggy ，

Had me guessing until the last sentence。 Could not put it down。

Clay Jones ，

This was the kind of can’t-put-it-down suspense novel I always hope they will be but am often disappointed。 A great plot and strong female characters with plenty of twists and turns。 Highly recommend。

Lisa ，

Honestly， I was a bit disappointed in this book until about two thirds of the way through。 It seemed a bit predictable and I didn't connect very strongly with any of the characters。 Then suddenly things picked up and there were several plot twists that were so well executed I abandoned everything else I had planned and just read through to the end。 Honestly， I was a bit disappointed in this book until about two thirds of the way through。 It seemed a bit predictable and I didn't connect very strongly with any of the characters。 Then suddenly things picked up and there were several plot twists that were so well executed I abandoned everything else I had planned and just read through to the end。 。。。more

Ellen ，

Claire and Eva meet at an airport and exchange boarding passes and identities， each wanting to disappear from their lives。 Good read。

Linda ，

A story of two desperate women whose paths cross。 One storyline telling of Eva's life leading up to their meeting， the other telling of Claire's life after their meeting。 Many twists and turns in the book， a page turner right up to the end。 Read it！ A story of two desperate women whose paths cross。 One storyline telling of Eva's life leading up to their meeting， the other telling of Claire's life after their meeting。 Many twists and turns in the book， a page turner right up to the end。 Read it！ 。。。more

Amanda G。 ，

Great book！ I needed more for Claire’s ending though！ The build up just quickly ended and left me needing more。

Debbie ，

Excellent story， well written about 2 desperate women who trade places before boarding a plane to escape their lives。 Lots of twists and turns

Nat ，

4。25

Debbie Diem ，

This book was wonderful！ I had to stay up till I finished it。

Ann ，

A well-written， compelling novelWhile The Last Flight had plenty of twists， the crisp writing， character development and realistic dialogue made it a cut above most novels in the suspense genre。 A fast-paced， fun read。

Kellie ，

Such a good book！ Read in one day on a car trip and loved it！

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 I can't say enough good things about this book。 It was fast-paced and a real page turner。 I loved both main characters， despite their flaws。 I found myself sympathizing with Eva， despite her series of stupid choices。 The premise was original and I never quite saw what was coming next。 I liked the reveal of the connection between Eva and Claire。 It really helped wrap the story up nice and explain how Eva ended up finding Claire。 I will admit， I was hoping to get to the end and find out that Eva h I can't say enough good things about this book。 It was fast-paced and a real page turner。 I loved both main characters， despite their flaws。 I found myself sympathizing with Eva， despite her series of stupid choices。 The premise was original and I never quite saw what was coming next。 I liked the reveal of the connection between Eva and Claire。 It really helped wrap the story up nice and explain how Eva ended up finding Claire。 I will admit， I was hoping to get to the end and find out that Eva had made it off the plane， but I enjoyed the ending。 Overall， this was a fabulous mystery/suspense with great characters。 Julie Clark knocked it out of the park with this one。 I'll be seeking out more of her novels in the future。 This was a solid 4。75 stars。 Definitely worth the read。 。。。more

Colette Dever ，

Rounded up from 3。5

Jake ，

Mixed feelings on this one。 The thriller itself was fine。 I really liked how Clark explored female relationships and the #MeToo era。 That was the strength of the book。 It should be a 4 star read but。。。*minor spoilers *There’s an adoption angle that plays a big part with a main character。 I think Clark handles it ok。 Just ok。 She talks about the difficulty of feeling safe and trustworthy and I get it。 But the bad behavior of a person is implied it’s due to abandonment issues。 And that’s just too Mixed feelings on this one。 The thriller itself was fine。 I really liked how Clark explored female relationships and the #MeToo era。 That was the strength of the book。 It should be a 4 star read but。。。*minor spoilers *There’s an adoption angle that plays a big part with a main character。 I think Clark handles it ok。 Just ok。 She talks about the difficulty of feeling safe and trustworthy and I get it。 But the bad behavior of a person is implied it’s due to abandonment issues。 And that’s just too close to my cranky zone。 Adoptees and foster children have a tough time; they don’t need their feelings exploited to justify sinister motives。 That’s what gives me pause with this one。 。。。more

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 The book started off well， with an intriguing premise but quickly slowed and became totally implausible。 I felt some things were too much of a stretch to have worked out as they did （such as Danielle piecing together where Claire was hiding out， for example）。Had to grind my way through as was expecting a much more interesting wrap up including a scene with Claire and her abusive husband and then a clever ending， but neither happened so felt unsatisfied at the end。

Meredith Thacker ，

Intriguing， quick readInteresting characters and plot。 Definitely had some elements of suspense and intrigue that kept you wanting to read more and more。

I guess when you read a book in only a few days and find it hard to walk away when you do， it warrants a relatively high rating 。。 for that reason， I'll call this one a strong 3 stars with just enough to get the 4th one on a generous Saturday。 Regardless of a plot line that's a bit old and done before， the story is pulled off rather well。 The female leads are portrayed as strong and independent personalities so that aspect was refreshing 。。 too often authors paint them as weak and helpless victi I guess when you read a book in only a few days and find it hard to walk away when you do， it warrants a relatively high rating 。。 for that reason， I'll call this one a strong 3 stars with just enough to get the 4th one on a generous Saturday。 Regardless of a plot line that's a bit old and done before， the story is pulled off rather well。 The female leads are portrayed as strong and independent personalities so that aspect was refreshing 。。 too often authors paint them as weak and helpless victims of their own bad choices。 It has some nice plot twists and character surprises along the way too。 Overall worthy of a quick and satisfying read。 。。。more

Kelly Jo ，

Fast， enjoyable read。 A suspense book with a female themed core that promotes support and friendship。
