The Last Weynfeldt (German: Der letzte Weynfeldt) is a 2008 crime novel by the Swiss writer Martin Suter. It is set in the world of private art collecting and forgery in Zurich and follows a wealthy bachelor in his 50s who becomes involved with a young mysterious woman.[1][2][3] Kirkus Reviews called it "entertaining, if also predictable" and a story that "doesn’t leave much of a lasting impression, for better or worse".[4]

The book was adapted into the 2010 television film Der letzte Weynfeldt [de] directed by Alain Gsponer [de] and starring Stefan Kurt and Marie Bäumer.[5]
