Reviews
The young boy at the story's center is a magnificent creation, Huck Finn channeled through Lord of the Flies , and as a detective in his own right he proves as driven and passionate as any mystery fan could hope for... an early masterpiece in a career that continues to promise great things. - Washington Post "The central issue-the mysterious disappearance of a beloved sister-is expanded through Hart's deft hands into a rumination on what people will do to keep their families together. Hart artfully employs the pattern of a whodunit to lead the reader down a twisted, thrilling path. What lies at the end, though, is wholly unexpected... This page turner will stay in your mind long after you've read the final page." - Atlanta Journal-Constitution "Hart... is brilliant in the art of misdirection... his attention to language and tempo, his descriptions of settings and people, and his development of characters and their personal relationships all add a wonderful richness to his work... that should make The Last Child a pleasure for any reader." - News & Observe (Raleigh, NC)

Synopsis
Winner of the 2010 Edgar Award for Best Novel John Hart's New York Times bestselling debut, The King of Lies , announced the arrival of a major talent. With Down River , he surpassed his earlier success, transcending the barrier between thriller and literature and winning the 2008 Edgar Award for best novel. Now, with The Last Child , he achieves his most significant work to date, an intricate, powerful story of loss, hope, and courage in the face of evil. Thirteen year-old Johnny Merrimon had the perfect life: a warm home and loving parents; a twin sister, Alyssa, with whom he shared an irreplaceable bond. He knew nothing of loss, until the day Alyssa vanished from the side of a lonely street. Now, a year later, Johnny finds himself isolated and alone, failed by the people he'd been taught since birth to trust. No one else believes that Alyssa is still alive, but Johnny is certain that she is---confident in a way that he can never fully explain. Determined to find his sister, Johnny risks everything to explore the dark side of his hometown. It is a desperate, terrifying search, but Johnny is not as alone as he might think. Detective Clyde Hunt has never stopped looking for Alyssa either, and he has a soft spot for Johnny. He watches over the boy and tries to keep him safe, but when Johnny uncovers a dangerous lead and vows to follow it, Hunt has no choice but to intervene. Then a second child goes missing . . . Undeterred by Hunt's threats or his mother's pleas, Johnny enlists the help of his last friend, and together they plunge into the wild, to a forgotten place with a history of violence that goes back more than a hundred years. There, they meet a giant of a man, an escaped convict on his own tragic quest. What they learn from him will shatter every notion Johnny had about the fate of his sister; it will lead them to another far place, to a truth that will test both boys to the limit. Traveling the wilderness between innocence and hard wisdom, between hopelessness and faith, The Last Child leaves all categories behind and establishes John Hart as a writer of unique power. This edition of the book is the deluxe, tall rack mass market paperback., A heartrending thriller about a young boy's hunt for his missing sister, and the dark truths he uncovers in his North Carolina hometown.
