THE SEQUEL TO THE LAST THING HE TOLD ME
“Taut prose matches the story with moments of emotional poignancy...a tense story, but a surprisingly tender one.” —The Washington Post “Action-packed and deeply felt, this sequel is every bit as incredible as The Last Thing He Told Me.” —Mary Kubica “A novel worth your time.” —The New York Times
Laura Dave continues Hannah Hall’s pulse-pounding journey in the riveting and deeply moving sequel to the #1 New York Times bestselling blockbuster and Apple TV+ show, The Last Thing He Told Me.
How far would you go for a second chance?
Five years after her husband, Owen, disappeared, Hannah Hall and her stepdaughter, Bailey, have settled into a new life in Southern California. Together, they’ve forged a relationship with Bailey’s grandfather Nicholas and are putting the past behind them.
But when Owen shows up at Hannah’s new exhibition, she knows that she and Bailey are in danger again.
Hannah and Bailey are forced to go on the run in a relentless race to keep their past from catching up with them. As a thrilling drama unfolds, Hannah risks everything to get Bailey to safety—and finds there just might be a way back to Owen and their long-awaited second chance.
A gripping, rich, and deeply moving novel about the power of forgiveness, The First Time I Saw Him picks up right where the epilogue for the “genuinely moving” (The New York Times) The Last Thing He Told Me left off, giving readers the eagerly awaited and absolutely exhilarating sequel to Dave’s global blockbuster.

"The Last Time I Saw Him is the much anticipated sequel to The Last Thing He Told Me and certainly lives up to the hype. The cat and mouse game continues with Hannah and Bailey but this time things are different. I held my breath, I cheered them on and crossed my fingers they would finally reunite with Owen. I dont want to give anything away except to say that once you start reading you wont be able to stop. The First Time I Saw Him is totally bingeable. Grab your copy, some kleenex and get ready to be on the run with Hannah and Bailey. Non stop action"
