The fast-paced new thriller from international bestselling author John Hart

Praise for John Hart:'The Last Child is a rare accomplishment - a compelling thriller written with a masterful, literary touch. You'll feel this story as much in your heart as in your gut' -- Jeffery Deaver 'Just once in a while a thriller comes along that makes you want to run out in the street and proclaim how good it is. John Hart's third novel is one of those. Written with power, precision and an iron grip on character it makes him out as one of the outstanding talents of his generation ... it grips you by the throat and never lets go' -- Daily Mail 'A really classy thriller ... the solution had me blinking with surprise and admiration' -- Guardian 'Compelling' -- Observer 'Smart and swift-moving ... Hart knows his way round the courtrooms and jailhouses ... the way that Grisham and Turow do' -- Pat Conroy

John Hart was born in 1965, and lives with his wife and two young children in North Carolina and Virginia. He has degrees in French, accounting and law, and worked as a banker, stockbroker and attorney before beginning his writing career.
