Promise Not to Tell Book Description

Jennifer McMahon's extraordinary novel, Promise Not to Tell, is an absolutely unforgettable book and more than a crime novel, with its suspenseful, deep insight and beautifully woven history about friendship, family, commitment and betrayal.

In this hauntingly beautiful novel, a woman's past and future collide, leading to unexpected consequences.

A forty-one-year-old school nurse has returned home to the countryside to care for her mother, who has Alzheimer's disease. The first night he arrives, a murder occurs and a little girl is killed. This incident is uncannily similar to another murder that occurred in the woman's childhood. Her poor friend Del, who was mocked and ostracized by her classmates as "Potato Girl", was also killed in the same way thirty years ago. Del's murderer was never found, and since that day the little girl has been immortalized in ghost stories and legends.

Now, as the investigation of the new murder draws our hero irresistibly in, his past and future come together in a terrifying, unexpected way. Because nothing is as it seems... And the ghosts of your youth are far from forgotten.

"A ghost story, a detective story, and a coming-of-age tale, this book takes you into the twisted world of adult friendship, betrayal, and murder. Jennifer McMahon's thrilling book has you eagerly awaiting the next one."
