A tense tale of past and present colliding, and a narrator whom no one believes: this book is a delight.” – Alex Marwood, author of The Wicked Girls
A twisty psychological investigation into a daughter’s inexplicable suicide attempt, and a mother’s impossible search for the truth
To the outside world, Susan Jackson has it all: a loving family, successful husband, and beautiful home. But when her teenage daughter deliberately steps in front of a bus, Sue is forced to question everything, especially when she discovers a horrifying entry in her daughter’s diary: “Keeping this secret is killing me.” As Sue tries to reconstruct the events that led up to Charlotte’s collision, entries from her own diary—written 20 years earlier—shed light on the secrets of her past, which threaten to disrupt the careful balance of the present, and throw her activities into question. Is Sue really a quest to find the truth, or is she losing her grip on reality… again?

I love all of the mystery and the secrets that Susan is keeping. It really sounds like a great book. Thanks for having the giveaway.
It sounds like a great psychological mystery. I’d certainly enjoy that. Thanks
The secret, the mystery, love it all.
I enjoy mystery books. This book though sounds much more than a mystery with a secret I want to know about. Also the psychological look into why her daughter tried to commit suicide.
This novel is compelling and unique. thanks.
a character fighting their own shaky grip on things is always exciting! Thanks for this feature and giveaway, Teddy Rose! — Kara
