Her Last Breath    by Taylor Adams Order:  USA  Can William Morrow, 2026 (2026) Hardcover, e-Book      Reviewed by Hilary Williamson Though Her Last Breath is the first Taylor Adams thriller I have raced through, it will not be the last! Its lead is Tess DeWater, a law school student, who suffered general anxiety disorder even before what follows. Despite her claustrophobia, Tess has reluctantly agreed to join her best friend Allie Merritt (an influencer) on a caving adventure. Allie's family had taken Tess in after she was abused as a child. They encounter a rather creepy man, Jacob, inside the cave, but ditch him and continue on, GoPros on their helmets recording their exploits. Readers are then taken forward in time, when Detective Washington interviews a traumatized Tess in her hospital room. Reader suspense builds steadily as she recounts what happens when Jacob catches up with them - and attacks. Tess escapes down the cave's Drainpipe, followed by a killer. She manages to make herself unreachable, but also trapped. As Washington talks to Tess, much is revealed and it paints a very different picture than shown so far, that someone other than Jacob masterminded the attack. The story's conclusion is one breathtaking shocker after another - don't miss this one!
