The Last House Guest/ Megan Miranda/ 343 pgs
This takes place on the coast of Maine, in a resort town that is one place in the summer when all the wealthy vacationers arrive, and another the rest of the year when just the locals are around. Every year at the end of summer, the young people throw a party. Avery, a local who now manages the rental properties of the Loman family, is the unofficial hostess. The party comes to a screeching halt, however, when her best friend, Sadie Loman, is found dead at the bottom of a cliff. The death is ruled a suicide. A year later, Avery is still feeling the loss of her friend when Sadie's brother Parker returns and weird things start happening around the rental properties. I loved the setting for this story and there are some twists that surprised me. Avery's character had an interesting background and her relationship to the townspeople and the vacationers was intriguing.
