In this twisting domestic suspense thriller from the acclaimed author of The Secrets We Share, the aftermath of a murder in a quiet New England coastal town reveals a web of dark secrets …

Monreith, Massachusetts, was once a small community of whalers and farmers.

These days it’s a well-to-do town filled with commuters drawn to its rugged coastline and country roads. A peaceful, predictable place—until popular restaurateur Laurel Thibodeau is found brutally murdered in her own home.

Suspicion naturally falls on Laurel’s husband, Simon, who had gambling debts that only her life insurance policy could fix. But there are other rumors too …

Among the group of six friends gathered for Alice Stone’s fortieth birthday, theories abound concerning Laurel’s death. Max Barbosa, police chief, has heard plenty of them, as has his longtime friend, Unitarian minister Georgia Fitzhugh.

Local psychiatrist Farley Drake is privy to even more, gleaning snippets of gossip and information from his patients while closely guarding his own past.

But maybe everyone in Monreith has something to hide. Because before this latesummer evening has come to a close, one of these six will be dead. And as jealousy, revenge, adultery, and greed converge, the question becomes not who among these friends might be capable of such a thing, but—who isn’t?

“Sophisticated, suspenseful and shocking. Mute that cell phone and curl up for several hours of great suspenseful reading.”—First Clue

Small town drama

Every character in this story has secrets, and most of them are pretty bad. It was a rather confusing to keep track of all the inter-connected crimes, and the final revelations were a bit of an overkill ( pun intended ). Narration was ok.

Great Mystery

So many twists and turns, I was not expecting that ending. The character development was amazing. Great story telling.
