About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

It’s Camilla’s first day back at work, her daughter’s first day at nursery.
But husband Luke is nowhere to be seen. The only trace of him is an unfinished note. Camilla tries to put it out of her mind; there must be a rational explanation.
At work, there are welcomes back, and too many distractions.
Then it starts.
Breaking news: there's a hostage situation developing in London.
The police arrive: Luke is caught up in it.
But he isn't a hostage. Luke - doting father, successful writer, enthusiastic runner and eternal optimist - is the gunman.
What Camilla does next is crucial. Because only she knows what the note he left behind says, and the clues it might hold . . .

Critic reviews

As a fiction writer myself it’s really, really hard to fool me - I always guess the ending of books - but FAMOUS LAST WORDS blindsided me with twists and surprises that had me gasping…and with a poignancy about relationships and love that one rarely finds in the genre. A brilliant, brilliant book (JODI PICOULT)
What an incredible, gripping, thrilling read (LISA JEWELL)
A totally fresh read that left me guessing until the very end! (Ashley Flowers)
