Keep your secrets. Tell your lies. The gripping new psychological thriller from the author of the bestselling The One Who Got Away. An old castle ... For more than 150 years, a grand house known as Alden Castle has stood proudly in the hills above the historic town of Paso Robles, home to a family weighed down by secrets and debt. A fresh body ... When, after much rancour, the castle is sold, billionaire developers move in, only to discover one skeleton after another, including a fresh corpse, rotting in the old family cemetery. An unsolved mystery ... As three generations of the well-respected Alden-Stowe family come in for scrutiny, detectives will discover a twisted web of rivalries, alliances, deceit, and treachery. Set amidst the rolling hills of the California wine district, and featuring gold-digger wives, a frustrated housekeeper, a demented patriarch and forbidden love, police must decide: who has died? Who has survived? And who, amidst all this horror and betrayal, is the lucky one?

On the night before a worldwide COVID-19 quarantine, Don Barlow gets an unexpected visitor - a young girl who claims to be the daughter of a son he gave up for adoption when he was a teen - a son he has never met. Thus begins this “who is telling the truth” mystery. Very timely! In fact, this may be the first novella with Covid being a major part of the story. 4+ hours on audio.

It‘s so new it‘s not even listed in the Litsy database yet.

This is a quick easy-read mystery with a twist in the tail I did not see coming. Just the sort of palette cleanser I needed.

I've been working a lot lately so the jobs at home have piled up. I'm tackling them today while I finish this little mystery. It's a bit like easy listening music, good to have going while I work.

A satisfying mystery to listen to while I attempt to wrangle my garden back into some form of acceptable appearance.
