Terrifying visions torment Starra. Lost moments of time and flashes of images too horrific to accept fill her with icy fear so complete she can’t escape it. With too many unanswered questions, she needs answers. Now. It’s her only hope if she wants to save what’s left of her shattered mind and soul.
Unlike Starra, Mina cares nothing for her soul. Damned long ago, she’s too scarred for redemption. There are people meant to enjoy lives of love and family and friends. Mina isn’t one of these people. Her life is in the shadows, unafraid of the dark... until she realizes that something lurks in those shadows, something that wants to tear her apart.
One never knows what the darkness hides...
Momma Says: 4 stars⭐⭐⭐⭐
Last Night is a wonderfully written, dark story told in dual points of view. As we bounce back and forth between Starra and Mina, the tale gets more and more twisty. It's intense and suspenseful, and I don't care to admit that I thought I had it all figured out more than once only to be proven wrong each and every time. The secrets just keep coming and Kim Deister's timing was impeccable on when each was revealed. Moreover, the author dangled those secrets, giving just enough to build the level of suspense and keep the pages turning. The only drawback for me was that the beginning felt a little stilted, and it took me a while to get into the story. However, once I did, I was hooked. I realize that I've been vague here, and that was intentional as this is one story that needs to be read spoiler-free, and I don't want to give anything away. Last Night is certainly not an easy read with its dark and twisted story, but it is a good one.
I was born and raised in a tiny town in the wilds of northern New York, a pretty, little college town called Potsdam. I grew up in a family of lawyers and teachers and bucked all the traditions. Before becoming a writer, I spent a lot of years wearing combat boots in the US Army. I spent most of my time in boots working as a Signals Intelligence Analyst (no jokes!) and a linguist. I also worked as a tech writer, an entirely different kind of writing, for Corning Glass Works. Now, I’m an Army wife and a mom to four sons. Over the years, our Army life has taken us all over the place and I have been lucky enough to work and live in some pretty amazing places. Now we live in Hawaii, just minutes from the beach!
I am a writer thoroughly in love with words. Reading them, writing them... I love that words can take you outside of your world and let the unimaginable become imaginable. When I’m not writing or lounging on the beach, I’m probably somewhere with my nose in a book.
