The Last One at the Wedding: A Novel

"Ultimately, the ITW judges declared Jason Rekulak’s The Last One at the Wedding to be the best thriller of 2025. It follows Frank Szatowski, a widowed war veteran and UPS delivery guy who discovers that his estranged daughter is shortly to marry the son of a tech billionaire. Out of the blue, she asks him to walk her down the aisle and he happily agrees. But when he arrives at the event—hosted at a luxurious private estate in New Hampshire—Szatowski soon realises that all is not as it seems and he must race to uncover the truth about his daughter’s fiancé before it’s too late. If you enjoyed Rekulak’s last book, the very creepy Hidden Pictures , then you will appreciate the plot twists in the tightly-plotted The Last One at the Wedding too—but this time expect family drama and conspiracy, not a supernatural thriller. Think Taken meets White Lotus . The Last One at the Wedding was also recommended for a Goodreads Readers’ Choice Award last year."
