A SMALL TOWN. A SHOCKING CRIME.
YOU'LL SUSPECT EVERY CHARACTER. BUT YOU'LL NEVER GUESS THE ENDING.
Ben Harper's life changed for ever the day his older brother Nick was murdered by two classmates. It was a crime that shocked the nation and catapulted Ben's family and their idyllic hometown, Haddley, into the spotlight.
Twenty years on, Ben is one of the best investigative journalists in the country and settled back in Haddley, thanks to the support of its close-knit community. But then a fresh murder case shines new light on his brother's death and throws suspicion on those closest to him.
Ben is about to discover that in Haddley no one is as they seem. Everyone has something to hide.
And someone will do anything to keep the truth buried . . .

A pacey thriller full of twists and turns. You won't be able to put TWELVE SECRETS down until the very end.
KARIN SLAUGHTER
-
A fine debut
The Sunday Times (Books of the Year)
-
Twelve Secrets is rather special. So clever, so engrossing, a genuine 'just one more page' kind of book
M. W. CRAVEN
-
What a tangled web! Brilliantly woven and then carefully unravelled for the big revelations at the end. A totally gripping read.
SUSAN LEWIS
-
Absolutely addictive. An unforgettable and nuanced cast of characters, a claustrophobic setting, and a suspenseful and chilling examination of the dark and destructive power of secrets. You will sleep with your eyes open after reading this one.
GILLY MACMILLAN
-
A tightly-woven thriller that races to a conclusion I didn't see coming
NELL PATTISON
-
Original, unputdownable and a really great read
KATIE FFORDE
-
I adored TWELVE SECRETS - It was so much twisty-turny fun and I loved the characters and how their secrets unravelled. It's a fast-paced, utterly gripping thriller - a definite twelve out of ten!
VANESSA SAVAGE
-
A fantastic, plot-twisting debut. Original and addictive.
CAMERON WARD
-
Twelve Secrets contains cliff-hangers and revelations galore. [It] is all plot, plot, plot - and, boy, what a lot it's got.
THE TIMES
-
Fast-paced and shocking.
Woman's Weekly
-
A page-turner with a final revelation that satisfies by being unguessable but retrospectively inevitable
Morning Star
-
Satisfyingly twisty, straight from Harlan Coben territory and surely Netflix bound
IRISH INDEPENDENT
-
One very twisty tale
