Pre-order the gripping new thriller from bestselling author L.H. Stacey! It will keep you up all night! Dark and dramatic, with an explosive ending Diane Saxon 'The plot twists kept me guessing right until the end' ?????????? That Lake. This house. His friends. They all know what happened to my boy. I know they do. And you... you have to help me find the truth... A weekend to remember... Ten years ago, deeply in love, I would have done anything for Thomas Kirkwood. But on the night of our graduation, fuelled by drink and drugs, Thomass lifeless body was found floating in the Kirkwood family lake. That weekend changed everything, and I swore I would never return to Kirkwood manor. A weekend to forget... Now, ten years later, I have been invited back to the place that holds such terrible memories for me, to a memorial weekend for Thomas, organised by his still-grieving mother Ada. But this is no ordinary weekend. This is a reunion to catch a killer...and I fear that I could be top of Adas list.... Perfect for fans of Teresa Driscoll, Sue Watson, Jackie Kabler and Kendra Elliot.

'I was hooked on this book and couldn't put it down' ?????????? 'I was hooked from the start... Very suspenseful' ?????????? Dark and dramatic, with an explosive ending Bestselling author Diane Saxon. 'This is a book that delivers on every level. The Weekend is a must for all fans of the genre and one that should NOT be missed!' Little Miss Book Lover. L. H. Stacey is up there with Nora Roberts and Karen Rose when it comes to writing jaw-dropping, nerve-twisting and addictive tales spiced with intrigue, passion and suspense and she is on top form with her latest novel, Keeper of Secrets. Julie 9th November 2019 L. H. Stacey knows how to write a psychological thriller and is very adept at building suspense throughout. Sincerely Book Angels L. H. Stacey is a fantastic storyteller - setting the scene in a very descriptive way and bringing characters to life that you just have to emphasize with - so much emotion!!! Minimaxi L. H. Stacey takes the reader on a journey of suspense with lots of twists and turns, most of which you won't see coming. It was an incredibly great read from start to finish giving me goosebumps along the way. Tasha Williams about House of Secrets

Gripping page turner! Ten years ago Lizzie‘s boyfriend was murdered at his graduation party and she found his body. Now his mother has commanded all Thomas‘s friends return for a memorial service. Only, hers is the 1st body to pile up this time. Lots of tension and a surprise twist at the end (which I‘d suspected early on and still didn‘t take away the creepiness).

Ten years ago, Thomas Kirkwood was found dead after a hedonistic party at his family's home. A decade later, his girlfriend, Elizabeth (Lizzie as was), & other friends who were there that fateful weekend, are invited back to an anniversary memorial for Thomas. Their mother, Ada Kirkwood, disliked her, so Elizabeth is shocked that when she arrives, Ada tells her that she wants her help in finding out which one of the friend group killed Thomas.

OutsmartYourShelf I really wanted to like this one. I was drawn to it initially by the moody cover, & it turned out to be the best part of the book. It has potential, but the characters are not really fleshed out past a quick sketch & they are all extremely unlikeable. It's also slow moving & it seemed to take forever for something to happen. Plotlines were introduced, built up, but never completed - what actually did happen with Tilly? 1y
OutsmartYourShelf The author finally commits the cardinal sin & doesn't include what happened to Alfie the dog in the epilogue. Was he ok as he seemed ill in the final chapter? Overall, it would have been a lot better if plot lines were completed & the characters developed more. 2.5⭐

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Boldwood Books, for the opportunity to read an ARC.
