THE LAST THING HE TOLD ME

Rebecca Lowman’s methodical performance will hook listeners until the very end of this contemporary mystery. Hannah wakes up one day to find her husband of one year, Owen, has vanished, leaving her a puzzling note: “Protect her.” Hannah assumes that “her” refers to Owen's teenage daughter, Bailey, who has despised Hannah from day one. While this is a typical story of two individuals who are at odds being forced to work together, Lowman’s portrayals of the characters and the mystery surrounding Owen’s secret life will intrigue listeners. Hannah is presented as an intelligent, headstrong protagonist. Bailey is reluctant to work with Hannah to find her father, but as they eventually become closer, listeners will enjoy some heartfelt moments.
