Description

“Once you start reading How to Bury a Secret, there is no putting it down.” — Readers’ Favorite 

SHE CHANGED HER NAME. BUT SHE CAN’T ESCAPE HER PAST.

Lily has it all. A successful career at a fast-paced tech startup. A man she plans to marry. A coveted promotion within reach. Until the video.

On the day Lily launches software designed to detect deepfakes, she becomes the victim of one herself.

As her career and reputation begin to implode, Lily must uncover who is behind the fabricated video before they destroy everything she’s worked for.

But as Lily digs deeper, she realises her past may finally be catching up with her.

Seventeen years earlier, a devastating accusation and a sudden death changed everything. Lily buried the truth. But someone else knows what really happened, and they’ll stop at nothing to dig up the past.

Perfect for fans of The Housemaid, The Silent Patient, and Big Little Lies, How to Bury a Secret will leave you turning pages into the night.

This book WOW I was hooked. I had no idea where the story was headed, and I couldn’t stop reading. The suspense had me completely gripped, and the ending? Absolutely jaw-dropping!! I never saw it coming and it kept me guessing until the very last page.

It was a terrific read, and a whip-smart narrative. The story itself was very enjoyable and relatable for today’s topics and suspenseful. You won’t forget this book in a hurry this is a class above your usual psychological thriller!
