Last Girl Ghosted by Lisa Unger

A special thank you to HarperCollins Canada for an ARC in exchange for an honest review. 

Think twice before you swipe.

Intrigued by his picture on a dating app—a dark handsome stranger—they go on a date at a downtown bar. Wren thought it was just going to be another hookup, but it quickly becomes so much more. With their powerful connection, she is falling for him hard. Is it love?

But then he stands her up and disappears—profiles deleted, phone disconnected. Adam ghosts her.

Maybe it was her fault. Did she shared too much, too fast? But then Wren learns that there were others before her. Girls who also thought that they were in love only these girls went missing. She had been looking for a connection, but now she's looking for answers. Chasing a digital trail into his dark past—and hers—Wren finds herself on a dangerous hunt. And she's not sure whether she's the predator—or the prey.

In this online dating match turned deadly cat-and-mouse game, Unger delivers a captivating thriller of secrets, obsession, and vengeance.  

Wren is a complex and engaging character who is harbouring secrets of her own. Last Girl Ghosted is written in first-person narration and utilizes dual timelines to flesh out the story. Also lurking in the background, and just as unsettling as the plot, is the pandemic. The only negative in this riveting thriller is the length—there are times where the narrative is repetitious and it creates unnecessary bulk.   

With perfectly crafted characters and just enough plot twists, that are both believable and propulsive, Last Girl Ghosted is utterly captivating.
