The Secret He Keeps

De: Laura Elliot

Narrado por: Roisin Rankin

I stare at the man I thought I knew, my heart hammering. I love him. But he’s lying. And the truth could destroy us…

When I met Darragh, I knew it was meant to be. We talked all night as his sage-green eyes lingered on my face in the dimly lit bar. He asked me question after question, about my dreams and fears, my family and friends, and before I knew it, I was telling him things I’ve never told anyone. And then I found out who he really is.

Twenty years ago, my beautiful, brilliant aunt Joanna was murdered. Her death still casts a shadow over my family’s lives, and my mother has never recovered. But now I know that the man who killed her was Darragh’s uncle. And the man I love, who I shared my deepest, darkest secrets with, has betrayed me…

I thought we were strangers that first night, but Darragh knew who I was–he got close to me deliberately. He says he never meant to hurt me, he never meant to fall for me. And while my mind is reeling, he tells me one last secret. He doesn’t believe his uncle killed Joanna. He thinks her killer is still out there.

All I wanted was for Darragh to be honest with me. But if he’s telling the truth now, it means that I’ve been living a lie. Can I trust the man I love? Are there more secrets to uncover? And can my family survive if I start to ask questions?

Perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty, Amanda Prowse and Diane Chamberlain, The Secret He Keeps is an addictive and emotional suspense novel about long-buried family secrets and the things we do to protect the ones we love.
