KNYGA Gabbie Hanks Nasty Little Secrets

Rose Dearling's life changed forever when her older brother was arrested for the murder of his high school sweetheart, Alexandria Hopely. Now, a decade after the crime that ripped her family and her close-knit Florida hometown apart, Rose is the only one who still believes he didn't do it. So much so that she wrote a bestselling novel about the case, pinning the murder on Alex's father. This may have gained her a reputation for being a lying opportunist, but it has also bought her a new life in Manhattan, far away from where it all began. Then Rose gets a call that shatters her world for the second time: her younger sister Hazel has gone missing without a trace. Back home and under the same roof as her family for the first time in years, Rose tries to avoid the dark memories as she searches for her sister. But when connections between Hazel's disappearance and Alex's murder emerge, Rose realizes the past, and her own book, could hold all the answers - including, finally, proof of her brother's innocence. And if he didn't do it, that means the real killer is still on the loose, and they've been hiding in plain sight all this time. Razor-sharp and propulsive, Nasty Little Secrets is a crackling psychological suspense about family secrets and small-town scandal, which keeps its grip on you until the final, jaw-dropping twist.
