In 1948, Newfoundland’s future hangs on a controversial referendum while decisions are shaped in rooms far removed from the people whose lives will be changed forever. From the fishing community of King’s Harbour, ordinary Newfoundlanders confront broken promises, political ambition and the fear that their voices will be forgotten.
---
Newfoundland, 1948. The country stands at a crossroads, and one historic vote will determine its future.
As Joey Smallwood campaigns for Confederation with Canada, conversations, promises and political agreements unfold far from the people whose lives will be permanently affected.
In the small fishing community of King’s Harbour, families who survived the Depression through salt fish, hard work and stubborn determination wait to learn what will become of their homeland. Among them is Tom Keating, a man who hears a promise that sounds too good to be true—and too important to ignore.
Inspired by the real history surrounding Newfoundland’s 1948 referendum, The Last Vote is a historical thriller about political ambition, broken promises and the quiet resilience of a people determined not to be forgotten.
Newfoundland’s future is on the ballot—but has its fate already been decided?

Jeff Peddle was born in Labrador City, raised in Newfoundland, and spent years working on George Street-earning a reputation as the guy who could break up a bar fight and pour a shot of Lamb's in the same breath. A world traveller, master Rummelier, and storyteller by blood, Jeff's adventures have taken him from tiki bars to pirate hideouts, with more laughs than a Legion meat draw. He's the kind of guy who shows up with a rum bottle in one hand, a tale in the other, and always leaves folks smiling.
