Tell Me Your Secrets by Mel Mcgrath

‘At its heart — and at its best — this book is an exploration of grief and the very different responses it producesIt is also about the dangers of the distance it can create between two people. . .McGrath's tender examination of grief and vulnerability is confidently told and a very relatable tale.’ Daily Mail

‘McGrath’s unspooling of her unsettling drama is non-pareil, shored up with multi-faceted characterisation (particularly of the traumatised central couple).’

Financial Times

‘Dark and sinister with a shocking final twist.’

Bella

‘McGrath provides a sensitive study of trauma and loss as well as expertly ratcheting up the tension, and the result is a compelling read.’

Guardian
