Ben Harper, true crime journalist, is about to unravel his most shocking story yet . . . his own. The day his older brother was murdered was the day Ben Harper' s life changed forever. In one of the most shocking crimes in national history, Nick and his friend were stabbed to death by two girls their own age. Police called the killings random, a senseless tragedy. Twenty years on Ben is one of the best true crime journalists in the country. He has left the past behind, thanks to the support of his close-knit hometown community. But when he learns about a fresh murder case with links to his brother' s death, Ben' s life is turned upside down once more. He soon finds himself caught in a web of lies, one that implicates everyone around him. And on his quest for answers, Ben discovers one very important truth:Everyone has secrets. But some secrets are deadlier than others.

#01: Twelve Secrets

Fast-paced and brimming with superb characters. I couldn' t put it down for a single second. Twelve stars! -- LISA JEWELL Twelve Secrets is a smart, satisfying, one-of-a-kind thriller that entertained me from start to finish. It examines the confluence of family loyalties and dark secrets while keeping the plot boiling. -- JAMES PATTERSON Utterly absorbing -- SHARI LAPENA Ominous at the beginning, breathless by the end . . . this is excellent hardcore suspense -- LEE CHILD A pacey thriller full of twists and turns. You won' t be able to put TWELVE SECRETS down until the very end. -- KARIN SLAUGHTER Twelve Secrets is rather special. So clever, so engrossing, a genuine ' just one more page' kind of book -- M. W. CRAVEN What a tangled web! Brilliantly weaved and then carefully unravelled for the big revelations at the end. A totally gripping read. -- SUSAN LEWIS Absolutely addictive. An unforgettable and nuanced cast of characters, a claustrophobic setting, and a suspenseful and chilling examination of the dark and destructive power of secrets. You will sleep with your eyes open after reading this one. -- GILLY MACMILLAN A tightly-woven thriller that races to a conclusion I didn' t see coming -- NELL PATTISON Original, unputdownable and a really great read -- KATIE FFORDE I adored TWELVE SECRETS - It was so much twisty-turny fun and I loved the characters and how their secrets unravelled. It' s a fast-paced, utterly gripping thriller - a definite twelve out of ten! -- VANESSA SAVAGE
