Every Secret Thing

Synopsis

Some secrets refuse to die.

When journalist Kate Murray is approached by a stranger desperate to reveal the truth about a long-buried crime, her life is upended, and a dangerous journey begins.

A tangled web of betrayal, loyalty, and courage draws Kate in as she follows the trail from present-day London to the shadowy alleys of wartime Europe.

The answers lie in her own family’s hidden past, but with every step, she awakens powerful enemies.

To bring a killer to justice, Kate must risk not only her career—but her life.

 

This is crime writing at its most complex, intelligent best – exhausting and quite breathtaking.
