Four women pursue love and freedom in 1970s New York in this page-turner . . . made to be gobbled up in a sitting by a New York Times-bestselling author (Cosmopolitan).
You won't be able to stop till it's done. --The New York Times Book Review
Suspenseful, captivating, and ultimately moving, The Last Chance is about four female friends in their late thirties trying to survive the dangerous and fast-paced world of New York City while also battling the subtle violence in their private lives. Each of them has dreams of finding love, success, and adventure in the big city. Each is desperately searching for a last chance. They will make difficult choices and face unbearable consequences, and by the end of the year, one of the women will die an unnatural and uncanny death . . .
The Last Chance is a tense and unexpected story about what it takes to survive and find control over your fate when everything seems to be working against you.
Her biggest success. . . . Rona Jaffe vividly portrays the four women's feelings, their relationships with each other, and their wide variety of men as The Last Chance moves with speed and suspense toward its shocking climax. --Literary Guild
