## About this book

The Only One Left, volume one in Riley Sager’s genre-bending thriller series, centers on a gothic historical mystery that refuses to fade. Decades after the brutal Hope family massacre, Lenora Hope is the only person left alive from that night. Mute, paralyzed, and confined to a wheelchair, she has never been able to share her side of the story. That changes when her new live-in caregiver, Kit, provides a typewriter. Summoning one working finger, Lenora types a shattering promise: I want to tell you everything.

As Lenora’s confession begins, Kit is pulled into a layered crime narrative where women sleuths navigate deception and shifting truths. The tale tightens with each revelation, blending classic mystery suspense with sharp contemporary twists. Sager’s historical thriller unearths long-buried secrets, building a tense atmosphere that questions guilt, memory, and the cost of speaking out. The result is a gripping detective story that holds readers captive without a single wasted word.
