About this listen

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Wrong Man and Eyes on You comes a harrowing new psychological thriller about a successful self-help author who suddenly finds her life spiraling dangerously out of control.

What would you do if you realized that your new husband, a man you adore, is keeping secrets from you - secrets with terrifying consequences?

Bryn Harper, an accomplished self-help author, already has plenty to deal with. She's still recovering from a devastating car accident that has left her haunted by recurring, smoke-filled nightmares. Worse still, she can't shake the ominous feeling her dreams contain a warning.

In the beginning Bryn's husband, Guy, couldn't have been more supportive. But after moving into a new house together, disturbing incidents occur, and Guy grows evasive, secretive. What the hell is going on? she wonders. Then, a woman hired to cater their dinner party is brutally murdered.

As Bryn's world unravels - and yet another woman in town is slain - she must summon her old strength to find answers and protect her own life. Her nightmares may in fact hold the key to unlocking the truth and unmasking the murderer.

With unexpected, riveting twists, The Secrets You Keep is an utterly compelling psychological thriller that once again showcases Kate White's extraordinary storytelling talent.

Overall a good read

Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I was sucked in and had a hard time taking breaks from listening. The reader did a good job performing the characters, and she had a voice that wasn't annoying to listen to. My only real gripe isn't a real problem I guess. I just feel like the author prepped me for a huge climax and the way it played out didn't hold to that expectation. I'm not complaining, and I don't feel it was a bad ending. I just feel slightly let down by the lack of dramatics. But again, I really enjoyed the book and I'm glad I read it. I would read more by this author.

Exciting read, but could have used a better narrator

The first 1/3 of the book was slow, but the remainder was so good, it redeemed itself. I enjoyed the characters, the twists and turns, and the ending. However, I almost returned the book many times during the first hour. The narrator’s voice was like nails on a chalkboard to me.

Some Good Some Not So Good

This audiobook was pretty good, but not the best. I liked the narrator's performance. The storyline was unrealistic at times. For one, it seemed unusual that Brin trusted a stranger, Sandra, who just showed up on her doorstep but didn't trust most of the colleagues her own husband invited for dinner. Also, who impulsively drives to a crime scene after being so shaken from seeing a previous murder victim? The husband's character fell flat for me and it was difficult to see his two extremes as a doting husband and a womanizing cheater. I liked the storyline about Brin and Paul's car accident and the slow unveiling of what actually happened. I also liked that Brin healed and gained back her confidence throughout the story.

Amazing story, relatable and thought provoking

Skillfully winds the everyday choices we make with their intrinsic results. Just when you think you have it all figured out, the mystery deepens. Great narrator, highly recommend.

Just ok…

Good enough to keep my occupied and interested. Characters didn’t develop much of a story line but I think that was intentional. The rest of the book was pretty predictable.

Predictable plot

I enjoyed the story but found it predictable. Very well written but had little suspense.
