What to expect
'Grips you from start to finish' KATE RHODES
__________
The island was abandoned for fifty years.
So how did the body get there?
Navigaceo: a tiny island five hundred kilometres from land in the Atlantic Ocean. Hastily deserted fifty years ago, it has been uninhabited ever since. Until now.
Tess Macfarlane is part of the very first return expedition and, as a documentary filmmaker, her job is to record everything she sees. Whatever Tess is expecting to find, it is not a body. Recently killed and wearing the uniform as her.
It soon becomes clear that someone on Tess's team is a killer. With five days until she can return to the mainland and no idea who to trust, can Tess avoid becoming the next body discovered on the shore?

Critics Review
-
A worthy successor to [Griffin's] great debut, The Second Stranger, last year. Inventive, thrilling and with a fine sense of place, it glistens with menace
DAILY MAIL
-
Tense and absorbing . . . The Last Visitor is reminiscent of Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, but Mr. Griffin's stylishly written white-knuckler, which culminates in a breathtaking abandoned-lighthouse sequence, creates an atmosphere all its own
WALL STREET JOURNAL
-
A real tour de force. The Last Visitor is a perfect locked room mystery, with believable characters, razor-sharp dialogue and a desolate island setting that proves to be the stuff of nightmares. Martin Griffin has created a tale that grips you from start to finish
KATE RHODES
-
Imagine spooky goings on, things going missing and a sense of being watched. You're on the right track
