Secrets of Our House

A Novel

By: Rea Frey

Narrated by: Samantha Desz

A thrilling domestic drama set against the power of the wilderness, Rea Frey's Secrets of Our House is a deeply felt novel of long-held secrets and the strength of family.

Desi is the mastermind behind her dream getaway house. Nestled high into the mountains of North Carolina, it is a sleek place, a luxurious place, a dark place.

A place full of secrets.

Secrets about the man she longs for, a man who is not her husband. Secrets about the roots of her family that must never, ever, see the light of day. When Desi and her family arrive from Chicago to spend the summer in the mountains, the seeds for the tumultuous months to follow are planted - her marriage on the rocks, not knowing which way they’ll go. Her 17-year-old daughter, Jules, falling in love for the first time with a local boy - and forging a new path that will take her to uncharted places. And Carter - a man Desi knew long ago, before she expunged him from her life for good.

All hurtling toward events none of them can undo.

Engaging, propulsive, and with a dramatic, heart-pounding final act, Secrets of Our House is a dazzling audiobook, richly drawn, that shows no matter how hard outside forces may shake you, the bonds of family are stronger than the harshest winds.

Not a mystery/thriller

I am 5 hrs into this story, and while it is enjoyable enough, it is absolutely NOT a mystery/ thriller/ suspense novel. It is an easy listen about the troubles of a family a
nd working through various life ups and downs. If it somehow changes and develops into a mystery in the last half of the story, I will edit my review.

wonderful!

Such an epic story from beginning to end! Beautiful, heartbreaking, sad, exciting. Wasn't to crazy about the mom but the book was breathtaking!

Not a fan

I had high expectations for this book. But it just seems too unreal. Concept was relatable. Actual events, not so much.
