“The Last Murder at the End of the World” by Stuart Turton is a gripping mystery novel set in a dystopian world. In a world devastated by a deadly fog, a group of islanders find themselves trapped on an isolated retreat. The fog, which kills anyone it touches, is kept at bay by a security system. However, when one of their beloved scientists is brutally stabbed to death, panic ensues. The murder triggers a lowering of the security system, endangering everyone on the island. If the killer isn’t identified within 92 hours, the fog will engulf the island and its inhabitants. The story revolves around Darby, who investigates the murder. She discovers shocking secrets about the island’s billionaire organizer, Andy, and his family. As the tension rises, Darby must unravel the truth before time runs out. Paranoia, hidden motives, and complex relationships make this novel a thrilling read.
