À propos de cet audio
"[A] twisty, riveting ride." (People magazine, People Pick)
"Chamberlain's evocative writing and Bennett's skilled character portrayals may cause visceral reactions in listeners, particularly during violent moments. Through the far-reaching impacts of the characters' actions, Chamberlain addresses racism, injustice, love, family dynamics, and intergenerational trauma. Bennett's style in this layered and powerful listening experience is both realistic and haunting." (AudioFile)
A community’s past sins rise to the surface in New York Times best-selling author Diane Chamberlain’s The Last House on the Street when two women, a generation apart, find themselves bound by tragedy and an unsolved, decades-old mystery.
1965
Growing up in the well-to-do town of Round Hill, North Carolina, Ellie Hockley was raised to be a certain type of proper Southern lady. Enrolled in college and all but engaged to a bank manager, Ellie isn’t as committed to her expected future as her family believes. She’s chosen to spend her summer break as a volunteer helping to register Black voters. But as Ellie follows her ideals fighting for the civil rights of the marginalized, her scandalized parents scorn her efforts, and her neighbors reveal their prejudices. And when she loses her heart to a fellow volunteer, Ellie discovers the frightening true nature of the people living in Round Hill.
2010
Architect Kayla Carter and her husband designed a beautiful house for themselves in Round Hill’s new development, Shadow Ridge Estates. It was supposed to be a home where they could raise their three-year-old daughter and grow old together. Instead, it’s the place where Kayla’s husband died in an accident - a fact known to a mysterious woman who warns Kayla against moving in. The woods and lake behind the property are reputed to be haunted, and the new home has been targeted by vandals leaving threatening notes. And Kayla’s neighbor Ellie Hockley is harboring long-buried secrets about the dark history of the land where her house was built.
Two women. Two stories. Both on a collision course with the truth - no matter what that truth may bring to light - in Diane Chamberlain's riveting, powerful novel about the search for justice.

Another great Diane Chamberlain story!
Sad subject matter but necessary so that we don’t forget the awful things that happened in the past. Well written and well read.

Okay
The narrator took a bit of getting used to. I really enjoyed the historical part of it but the plot was a little bit lame.

Sad story
This story is so sad because I know the events and in the story could actually happen during this time. I was caught up in the 1965 story line and somewhat annoyed when the 2010 storyline came back because I was so interested in Ellie’s story. I was annoyed by Kayla as a character complaining about her new house that’s why I gave it one less star, but I realize that unease was needed to move the story along and ultimately unearth the tragic past. You will be heartbroken by this book, it ends on a good note but will leave you shaken. The narrator is so fantastic seamlessly going from one character to another, I really enjoyed her performance.
