If you've never worried about sneaky cameras in BNBs, you will now...
As always, I'm impressed by Pomare's ability to write real, complex women (and men). Although not his best novel, The Last Guests is still a tense and winding read that keeps you wondering. This is a timely story with some solid research behind it, all the way from tech to the job of an ambulance officer.
If you're interested in the real-life concern of tech being used to spy on everyday people or already a fan of Pomare's writing, The Last Guests is well worth your time.
