Review Quotes
"With his dying breath, Ella's grandfather urges her to find a hidden box but to be cautious about whom to trust. Only Ella has been told about the hidden box, not her uncle, not her mother, and not her grandmother. Why would he entrust this secret only to Ella? Adamant about honoring his wishes, Ella plans a trip to Italy to walk in her grandfather's shoes and learn about his past. Armed with a handful of mysterious letters and an unrelenting determination, Ella discovers some truths that might be better left hidden.The strong theme of family ties permeates Buried Secrets. Ella has such deep love for her grandfather that she is willing to risk her career in order to clear his sullied reputation. The mystery unfolds in quaint towns along the sea in Italy, providing a wistful backdrop for a dramatic story. Besides Jaime, Ella's best friend, there is an interesting cast of new faces, friends and otherwise, as Ella follows the clues. The story builds slowly, but leads to a stunning climax.Krissy Baccaro has an impressive ability to put together an intriguing mystery that spans decades. You may think you've guessed who is guilty in Buried Secrets early on, but make no mistake... the ending will leave you breathless!" Jennifer Jackson, Indies Today

I was so into this story, I couldn't stop reading it. When I did, I couldn't wait to get back to it. A very well-written story of love and redemption. I voluntarily reviewed a copy of this book."

"Ella finds a hidden box that her grandfather, Poppy, reveals to her before dying. That sets Ella off on a mystery, taking her to Italy. The setting is described in great detail, you can smell and taste the old country setting along the sea. Secrets are revealed and people are not who they seem to be as the story winds down to an unexpected conclusion." Goodreads
