Every Last Fear starts with a bang when New York University film student Matt Pine receives the devastating news that his family has died from a gas leak in their vacation rental in Mexico. All are gone, except for his older brother Danny, who is in prison for the murder of his girlfriend, a crime which his parents and sister believe he did not commit. A Netflix true crime documentary has been made about Danny which proclaimed his innocence and resulted in a media spotlight on the family.
Matt soon learns that the FBI has doubts that the death of his family is accidental, but they are clearly holding back information. Faced with suspicions about the tragedy in Mexico, Matt sets out to retrieve the bodies of his family and find answers about what happened. The story is told from multiple points of view, alternating between past and present, to provide the complex backstory of the Pine family.
The characters are interesting, especially Matt's NYU friends and FBI Agent Sarah Keller, who battles misogyny while cleverly trying to put the pieces of the puzzle together. The story is intense, riveting and fast-paced, with unexpected twists and turns. Compulsive and addictive, Every Last Fear will have you staying up all night. #EveryLastFear #MinotaurBooks
