When I received this book I remember it being listed as a “thriller” I’ve really enjoyed all of this authors past books so I expected something similar. Had I known it was going to be more historical than thriller I probably wouldn’t have picked it up. I’m not a historical fiction reader so I found this hard to get into as I usually do with that genre. I can respect all that Noelle put into this book. You can truly tell how much this means to her. I think she did an incredible job and I recommend this to anyone who enjoys reading historical fiction based on a true story.

Noelle truly outdid herself with this retelling, and it brought awareness to something that I had no previous knowledge of ever happening.
I would recommend this novel over again for those who are keen on historical fiction. (though I wouldn't consider this a thriller, as marketed, but perhaps horror)

The Mountain Meadows Massacre was a brutal attack by Mormon Militia on a wagon train headed west from Arkansas to California to find a better life for their families. The attack took place in 1857 during the Utah War, leaving between 100 and 140 men, women, and children slaughtered. There were all but 17 young lives spared, who eventually were returned to their extended families in Arkansas.

Discovering and reading about this revelation truly broke my heart .. to know this ACTUALLY happened .. I am without words.
What I can take from these feelings is that we need to do better. History continues to repeat itself. Hate has no place in the world. Always, always choose love and kindness. 𖹭

This was a ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ read for me!

Fantastic combination of thriller and historical fiction! Kept me on the edge of my seat and wanting more!

None Left To Tell was a heartbreaking, gripping historical thriller that I couldn’t put down and ended up finishing in a matter of hours. I had never heard of the Mountain Meadows Massacre before and while this story is a historical thriller, the story it’s based on is true and the author obviously did thorough research and had me googling plenty of facts. I always appreciate historical fiction that makes the topic and events interesting enough that I want to learn more seeing as I’m not much of a nonfiction reader. I highly recommend this book.

Wow. I was not prepared for how terribly good and heartbreaking this book was! This story follows three different families who were involved in different ways with the Mountain Meadow Massacre. Learning about the history of this event was very informative and heartbreaking to say the least. While I wouldn’t really label it a “thriller” it was a phenomenal story and was heavily based on actual people and events. Would definitely recommend this to anyone who is interested in some historical events we don’t hear a lot about today.

I enjoyed this book! There was so much history and it was obvious the time and research that was put into this book!

I absolutely adore this authors thriller work, so when I saw this story I was excited yet hesitant because history really isn’t my jam. I wish it was, but alas. Little did I know, I had nothing to worry about. She brought this very important piece of history to life in a way that felt simultaneously respectful and enthralling. This was absolutely heartbreaking. Stories like this leave such a large emotional impact because it forces you to reflect on REAL WORld evil, which is scarier than any horror or thriller book around.

This book is outside my usual genre—historical fiction and thriller—but it was a fantastic read about a true event I had never heard of before. The level of secrecy surrounding the event is both overwhelming and deeply unsettling. This was my fourth book I have read written by this author and they do keep getting better and better!

None Left to Tell is a gripping historical thriller based on the true events of the Mountain Meadows Massacre. The story is told from the perspectives of three women: Lucy, Katrina, and Sally, each facing their own harrowing challenges. Lucy is determined to seek justice against the anti-Mormon mob that drove her family from their home. Katrina, a young mother, struggles to protect her family during the perilous journey west. Sally, trapped in a polygamous marriage, must navigate her loyalties when her husband joins a group of religious zealots.

Ihli's vivid storytelling brins this dark chaper of history to life. the characters are well-developed, and their emotional journeys are both heartbreaking and inspiring. The book's pacing keeps readers on edge, blending suspense with historical detail. While the subject matter is intense, Ihli handles it with sensitivity and depth.

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this eARC.

Noelle West Ihli's "None Left to Tell" is a gripping descent into the suffocating world of isolation, where paranoia and suspicion erode all sense of trust.

This novel follows a group of friends who retreat to a remote cabin for a weekend getaway. Their idyllic escape quickly descends into chaos when a blizzard cuts them off from the outside world, trapping them inside with a terrifying secret. As the storm intensifies, so too does the tension, as old resentments and hidden agendas come to the surface.

Ihli masterfully builds suspense, relying on subtle psychological cues and a claustrophobic sense of atmosphere. The isolation of the cabin becomes a character in itself, amplifying the characters' growing paranoia and fear. This story explores the fragility of human connection and the destructive power of secrets, leaving the reader questioning the motives of every character.

"None Left to Tell" is a chilling reminder that the most terrifying threats are likely to come from those closest to you.

This was an amazing book had me shocked and totally didn’t expect the outcome but had a great ending

Having read one of Noelle West Ihli's previous novels, I was under the impression, as some others were, that this was purely a *thriller" novel. But I was delighted to actually learn about a forgotten and relatively unknown piece of history.

I initially started this book but set it down, thinking it wasn't interesting enough and that I couldn’t relate to it. How wrong I was! This book tells the true story of the Mountain Meadow Massacre, and it is heart-wrenching and deeply sad. I have personally visited Nauvoo, Illinois, where I learned about the anti-Mormon mob that drove the settlers from Illinois, but I had never heard the story of what the Utah militiamen from the Nauvoo region did. The narrative is presented from multiple perspectives, focusing on the harrowing experiences of the women who lived through this event. This is exactly why I love historical fiction; it reveals aspects of history that often aren't taught.


Thank you NetGalley, Dynamite Publishers and Noelle for such an amazing read.

The fact that this was based on a true story makes it so much creepier. I absolutely love Noelle Ihli. I’m so glad I got to read this book.

If you are familiar with Noelle W. Ihli's previous work, let me tell you that this is completely different. It's unlike any book I've ever read and I was completely captivated from page one.

None Left to Tell is a fictional retelling of a true story. It is the story of 3 women who experienced the Mountain Meadows Massacre. The massacre really happened in Utah in 1857. This is something that I had never heard about, until I read this book and was saddened to read the circumstances.

You will meet Lucy who is Mormon and was, at one time driven, from her home from in Illinois, by anti-Mormons, and is now living in Utah with here family. You will also meet Katrina is traveling with her family and fellow Christians, by horse and covered wagon, across the country to California by way of Utah. Finally, you will meet Sally who was "gifted" to a man to become his fourth wife. Each woman is strong in their own right and their stories their different perspectives of the massacre.

None Left to Tell is a dark and very sad read, but it's also one I recommend. The fiction mixed with the true facts of the Mountain Meadows Massacre will not only tug at your heart, but you'll learn about a massacre that is not talked about, for the most part. Ihli has a note at the end talking about how she went about writing the book and her own connection to the story. I think she did an amazing job blending fact with fiction and give her kudos for tackling such a hard subject.

Oh my goodness. This book was not at all what I was expecting but it was so much more! I have recently become a big fan of Noelle Ihli and after reading this I'm an even bigger fan! It is not always easy to tell a story of something so horrific and not only make it educational but also entertaining but that is exactly what she did. This book opened my eyes to an event in history that I had no idea even occurred. Although some characters were fictional, it was so easy to connect with them and their emotions. I honestly think we need more books like this that bring important, even tragic events to light. These people and what happened to them should not have been forgotten and what a beautiful way to have their story brought back to life.

This book was not what I was expecting from Noelle but I still enjoyed it and very harrowing to learn it's based on a true story. Definitely worth a read!

If you’re looking for a book that once you pick it up; you just can’t put it back down. Then this is it. A heart wrenching story that is so well done. Highly recommend.

Wow! This book was something I did not expect. I had never heard of the Meadow Massacres before. This story was a little slower paced, but it worked for delivering the information. This is a heartbreaking story based on a true event. There seems to be so little known about this incident, but this should be more widely known.

This was my first Noelle Ihli book and it will certainly not be my last!! This book was heart-wrenching and the story being retold was abhorrent. It’s so important for us, as Americans, to be familiar with, though.

There were plenty of twists throughout this that I didn’t see coming and to know that this is BASED OFF SOMETHING THAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED is wild!! This novel is narrated by three different women and that allows us to see so many different sides of this story and the various aspects that could only be told by someone who existed in the roles each of them did. I can’t believe it took me so long to finish this. I think the three different narrators was also the downfall of this book for me. For the first 40% or so, I couldn’t really keep the different narrators straight and it caused me to never pick the book up. Once I got past that, I couldn’t put it down!!! I FLEW through the last half of None Left to Tell.

Highly recommend for anyone who likes historical fiction and/or horror. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the eARC of this book!
