One Little Secret - Hardcover

by Cate Holahan (Author)

A USA TODAY Bestseller

"A psychological thriller that will keep you up all night...Get ready."--Good Morning America

Part locked-room mystery, part domestic thriller, this gossipy, scandal-ridden whodunit told in alternating narratives from an unforgettable cast of characters is perfect for fans of Paula Hawkins and Gillian Flynn

Eager to help her transplanted family set down roots in their new town--and desperate for some kid-free conversation--Susan invites her new neighbors to join in on a week-long sublet at the glass beach house with her and her workaholic husband.

Over the course of the first evening, liquor loosens inhibitions and lips. The three couples begin picking up on the others' marital tensions and work frustrations, as well as revealing their own. But someone says too much. And the next morning one of the women is discovered dead on the private beach.

Town detective Gabby Watkins must figure out who permanently silenced the deceased. As she investigates, she learns that everyone in the glass house was hiding something that could tie them to the murder, and that the biggest secrets of all are often in plain sight for anyone willing to look.
