'The Last House on the Street' by Diane Chamberlain

A community’s past sins rise to the surface when two women, a generation apart, find themselves bound by tragedy and an unsolved, decades-old mystery.

Bestselling author Diane Chamberlain says that the stories she tells “are often filled with twists and surprises and –- I hope -– they also tug at the emotions.”

In The Last House on the Street, Chamberlain smartly tackles contemporary issues by relating a tale set fifty-seven years ago. The ongoing fight for voting rights is in the 2022 headlines on a daily basis, as politics figure prominently into “what should be a basic American right,” but still isn’t in far too many regions of the United States. The Last House on the Street is a powerful commentary not just about the continuing struggle for voting rights, but also on racism, social injustice, and the freedom to love whomever one chooses.
