She’s not an unreliable narrator, she’s often parsimonious to the point of annoyance.Ībby, despite her muted tone, desperately wants to know what has happened to the seven lost souls who vanished, all last seen in Cutter’s Pass.
Having her tell Cutter’s Pass’ story–she is still somewhat of an outsider despite having been there for ten years–was an exercise in (enjoyable) reader frustration. As to whether or not the story Abby tells can be believed, well, I’m not sure.Ībby is a removed narrator–I kept wanting to ask her basic questions in order to get a grasp on who she is and how she got that way, but she remains, throughout the book, impenetrable. What happened to them? And can we trust the narration of Abby Lovett–the book is in her first-person voice–about whom we know almost nothing? I can promise you that the first mystery is solved, albeit in a rather rushed manner. In the latest from Megan Miranda, The Last to Vanish, seven people have vanished in the small North Carolina mountain town of Cutter’s Pass over the past twenty odd years.
