Uncover the chilling truth in The Only One Left, a standalone gothic psychological thriller by New York Times bestselling author Riley Sager. Blending haunted mansion suspense, unsolved family murders, unreliable narrators, and shocking twists, this bestselling thriller delivers a haunting mystery that will keep readers guessing until the final page.

More than fifty years ago, the brutal Hope family murders shocked the Maine coast. Seventeen-year-old Lenora Hope was widely believed to have murdered her parents and sister in a massacre that became the subject of a haunting nursery rhyme. Yet despite public suspicion, Lenora was never charged, and she has spent decades living in isolation inside the decaying cliffside mansion known as Hope's End.

Now it's 1983, and home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives to care for the elderly Lenora after the previous caregiver mysteriously disappeared. Confined to a wheelchair and unable to speak after multiple strokes, Lenora communicates by slowly typing on an old typewriter.

Her first message?

"I want to tell you everything."

As Lenora reveals the horrifying events surrounding the infamous murders, Kit begins to question everything she's been told. Strange disappearances, hidden secrets, and unsettling discoveries inside Hope's End make it increasingly clear that someone isn't telling the whole truth—and that the past may be far more dangerous than anyone imagined.

Atmospheric, suspenseful, and filled with jaw-dropping twists, The Only One Left is Riley Sager at his finest, delivering a modern gothic mystery readers won't soon forget.
