The Secrets We Bury - Paperback

The most dangerous person isn't the one hiding the truth. It's the one deciding what everyone else believes.

Sarah

I came to Hammershead hoping to save my marriage.

Instead, I found a body.

Now my husband is lying to me, the police are trying to solve a murder, and somehow the only person I trust is the woman I know the least-my neighbor, Margaret.

While the police hunt a killer, I'm hunting the truth. Following my husband's lies leads me to questions no one in Hammershead wants answered.

Margaret says everyone in this town has something to hide.

I just never imagined her secrets would become my problem.

Margaret

Sarah thinks she came to Hammershead to escape her past. I knew better the first time we spoke across the fence.

I recognized the cracks beneath her smile. I'd seen that quiet determination before-the kind that belongs to someone willing to do whatever it takes.

She needed a friend. She had no idea how much I needed one too.

Now another body has been found, the police are getting closer, and the past I've spent years burying is clawing its way back to the surface.

I don't know whether befriending Sarah is my salvation or a mistake.

Either way, if I'm going to survive what's coming, I need her help to keep my secrets buried.
