The Last Visitor

An evocative, atmospheric thriller set on an uninhabited island, where a young woman must fight for survival while she works to discover who from her research team is really a killer.


The island was abandoned for fifty years. So how did the body get there?

Three hundred miles from the mainland in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean lies Navigaceo: a tiny island that was hastily abandoned fifty years ago and has been uninhabited ever since. Until now.

Tess Macfarlane is a documentary filmmaker tasked with capturing the wild beauty of Navigaceo. Accompanied by a small team of researchers, her job is to film everything she sees.

But Tess sees too much: a body. It's clearly a recent murder. It shouldn't be there. And the victim is wearing the same expedition uniform as her colleagues.

Someone has been here already, and everyone on the team is a suspect. More than one of them could be a murderer. With five days until they are returned to the mainland, Tess must be careful—or hers might be the next body found on the shore. . . .

Martin Griffin, the author of the internationally acclaimed thriller The Second Stranger, is an exciting new voice in crime fiction. Before turning his hand to writing, he was a deputy headteacher and a doomed singer. Martin lives in Manchester with his wife and daughter.
