Interest Age Teen Reading Age 8

Isolate a group of teenagers in a crumbling old mansion with a tragic past, get them telling ghost stories, then wait for scary things to happen!

It’s a classic horror story set up and Cynthia Murphy works it brilliantly in her thriller. The teens are leading a summer camp for kids and the first incidents look like accidents, but then someone dies, and it’s clear that something very sinister is going on. Is it the ghost who haunts the Widow’s Walk, or one of them? The stakes rise with one night to go – who will make it out alive?

If you like your reading to be punctuated by shocks, scares and jump out of your seat moments, you’ll love this! Murphy handles the horror brilliantly right up to the creepy ending, and it’s horror-tastic fun.

When an American-style residential camp is set up in the grounds of an English stately home, the teenage camp counsellors are looking forward to a fun summer of activities. But right from the outset, things don't feel quite right at Camp Miller. Rumours circulate of a tragedy that took place in the grounds and there are unexplained sightings of a ghostly presence. Then the incidents begin - a near-drowning out on the lake, a fatal fall from a cliff-face ...

Praise for Last One to Die;

'Chilling, funny and gripping' Emily Barr, author of The Truth and Lies of Ella Black

'A supernatural terror-fest!' Kat Ellis, author of Harrow Lake

'Point Horror for a new generation' Kathryn Foxfield, author of Good Girls Die First

Cynthia Murphy is the bestselling author of a number of YA thrillers, including the BookTok sensation Win Lose Kill Die.

She has a long-standing love affair with all things scary, reading Point Horrors before graduating to Stephen King in her misguided teens. Studying for a degree in Art History and Archaeology meant that she developed a thirst for anything old, beautiful and very often dead. She tries to combine this with contemporary settings in her writing to make unique and chilling modern stories.

Cynthia lives in her hometown of Manchester with her husband and their rescue dog, Loli, who you will see a lot of on TikTok and Instagram @CynthiaMurphyYA
