Book Synopsis
Someone knows what really happened the night Sofia Eliades died. The guilty have escaped unscathed for a decade. Can you untangle this web of lies and discover the terrible truth? "A sharp, propulsive thriller that sucks you in from page one. Packed with unforgettable characters and chilling twists."--Amy Tintera, New York Times bestselling author of Listen for the Lie"Dark, intricate . . . perfect for fans of Ashley Winstead and Megan Miranda."--Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author of The Spare Room and We Were Never Here
Ten years after Sofia was killed in a tragic accident, her college ex Caroline and her former roommate Brooke almost have what they've always wanted. Caroline is on the precipice of scoring funding for her feminist tech startup. Brooke is newly engaged and starting her dream job at a prestigious prep school. But unless the two best friends can cheat fate a second time, one night's secrets could unravel everything. When Caroline gets threatening comments on her company's Instagram and Brooke receives a sinister email with ominous photos attached, all from "Sofia," their carefully constructed facade begins to crumble. And when one of their last connections to "Sofia" turns up dead, they must decide how far they're willing to go in order to survive. The devil's in the details, and the tiniest mistake could prove fatal. Just one thing is certain: nothing is as it seems in this sinister series of events, and readers will never guess where this rabbit hole of revenge will lead. Prepare to have your allegiances shift along with every twist and turn. What was set in motion long ago is hurtling toward a jaw-dropping conclusion that will shock even the most hardcore thriller fans.
Review Quotes
"This propulsive thriller is perfect for fans of The Girls Are All So Nice Here and Society of Lies--or Promising Young Woman."--Katie Couric Media, "Best New Books to Read This Week" "A super dark and unpredictable read . . . And as secrets tend to do, this secret is a doozy, and when it is uncovered, it reveals just how toxic friendships can be. . . . Please do yourself a favor and join them for [this] great ride full of tension, paranoia, and worry, but most of all fun."--Great Mysteries & Thrillers "[A] sure-footed debut . . . Trench makes the most of her I Know What You Did Last Summer-style setup, maintaining nerve-jangling suspense throughout and skillfully shading her traumatized leads. The result will satisfy fans of Lisa Unger."--Publishers Weekly "Trench's prose is strong, lively, and compelling."--Chick Lit Central "Every single character has a secret so dark, or perhaps a revenge wish so visceral, that they would kill for it. The twists and turns and reveals are skillfully paced, and . . . the novel has a lot of salient commentary on relationships--particularly when it comes to toxic men. The women might be dissolute in various ways, but at least their personalities are not restricted to their flaws. . . . At the end of it all, Trench is calling the men to account--and to punishment. A confident and wickedly sinuous debut."--Kirkus Reviews "A dark, intricate, and surprising debut, perfect for fans of Ashley Winstead and Megan Miranda."--Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author of The Spare Room and We Were Never Here "Virginia Trench's debut is a sharp, propulsive thriller that sucks you in from page one. Packed with unforgettable characters and chilling twists, Our Secrets Were Safe is an engrossing read you won't want to put down."--Amy Tintera, New York Times bestselling author of Listen for the Lie "Devious and twisty in all the right ways, Virginia Trench's debut is everything you could wish for in a psychological suspense thriller. Twisted characters you can't trust? Check. Multiple points of view? Double check. Dual timeline? Triple check. An ending you won't see coming? Quadruple check. Whatever you do, don't miss it!"--Avery Bishop, bestselling author of Girl Gone Mad "Trench tells a thrilling, assured story about power dynamics and the lengths that desperate persons will go to stay on top."--Library Journal "Our Secrets Were Safe is more than just a thriller; it's a psychological excavation. With prose that is both cutting and lyrical, Trench crafts a tale of identity, class, and the corrosive power of unresolved guilt. For fans of Tana French and Megan Abbott, this is a debut not to miss."--Best Reviews Club
