Angels

Tell Me Your Secrets by Mel McGrath is a totally griping contemporary psychological suspense that I just could not put down. I read it in just two sittings, pausing only to sleep.

There is the theme of grief. “Grief… is a country with a population of one.” No two people will ever grieve the same, even in response to the same event. With grief we see that guilt and regret go hand in hand.

A thirty year old cold case is awakened in present day as a character feels a connection in an old house. Secrets, lies and sadness inhabit the very walls, as the truth is trying to come out.

We witness the manipulation of many by one – but to what end? Read the book in order to find out.

All the characters were well drawn. Not all were likable. Mel McGrath manipulates the reader’s responses as we follow the action.
