New Year’s Eve. Seren. Seren goes to the party, she bums a ride with Huw. She is wearing her super short dress. Her mom thinks she is going out with her friends. She runs into Mia, Mia is worried for her. Caleb asks her out but realizes she likes Rhys. Seren goes to Clemmie’s lodge to talk to the twins and Caleb and let the twins know they need to bring their dad a sandwich to eat, per their mom’s request. She gets upset because Rhys won’t pay attention to her. I loved everything about The Last Party. Taut, pacey and so atmospheric with brilliantly executed twists and wonderfully written characters. DC Ffion Morgan is my new favorite detective. An absolute triumph." ― Claire Douglas, author of The Couple at No. 9 A tasty, if not always tasteful, tale of supernatural mayhem that fans of King and Crichton alike will enjoy. New Year’s Eve. 11:45am. Yasmin tells Rhys she wants a divorce. He sends a text to Seren to ‘wear the dress’ meaning a short, slutty dress. He runs into Dee and she hints about Rhys’ triplets and that Seren looks so much like his twins. He realizes that Seren might be his daughter with Ffion. He tries to call her and she hangs up. He starts going through is fan mail to pass time and to calm down. He gets a paper cut on his tongue from one of the letters. Ffion shows up and freaks out on Rhys to make sure no one can find out about Seren.Late July. Rhys & Yasmin. The Lloyds and Charlestons are moved into their lodges and awaiting the other residents to arrive. Dee Huxley is the first to arrive. Johnty helps her to her lodge. Then the Staffords arrive. Mia is there to help with a surprise for Ashleigh, Bobby had called to have her help set it up. Clemence and Caleb are next. Yasmin notices that Dee is staring at Rhys with hatred. Dee was the owner of Number 36 and knows what Rhys had done to her worker. Every character is interesting and all of the relationships are thoughtful and realitist. I truly never wanted this book to end and I look forward to book #2. If you like a good police procedural, a mystery with lots of human interest or just want to visit a charming town with secrets, The Last Party is for you! His lakeside holiday homes are a success, and he’s generously invited the village to drink champagne with their wealthy new neighbours. This will be the party to end all parties.
