About this listen

“A genre-defying blend of crime writing and science fiction.”—Alexandra Alter, The New York Times

The explosive final installment in the Edgar® Award winning Last Policeman series.

With the doomsday asteroid looming, Detective Hank Palace has found sanctuary in the woods of New England, secure in a well-stocked safe house with other onetime members of the Concord police force. But with time ticking away before the asteroid makes landfall, Hank’s safety is only relative, and his only relative—his sister Nico—isn’t safe. Soon, it’s clear that there’s more than one earth-shattering revelation on the horizon, and it’s up to Hank to solve the puzzle before time runs out...for everyone.

This is a very humanizing wrap-up, it has interesting twists, but it maybe felt a little slow and low-stakes, quite meandering in a way that made me feel like it could have cut out a portion of the plot. Some may feel disappointed how grounded and simple this story is compared to 2nd.

Decent

Great ending to an intriguing trilogy. This third book was by far the best and had a great ending.

A disastrous read worth reading.
