Description:

From USA Today bestselling author Debra Webb comes crime analyst Vera Boyett’s next case—a triple homicide that tears a small town apart…and an accident that could do worse to her family.

A cabin in the woods. Three dead, one in critical condition. Property owned by not just any Tennessee local, but one of the richest men in the country.

Vera Boyett isn’t quite sure what it means. But that’s why Sheriff Gray “Bent” Benton called her: to figure it out. Criminal analysis is what she does best. Even when the town is in panicked shambles, even when the case is more delicate than most…and even when it’s not the only case on her plate.

Vera’s family is caught in a deadly mess of its own. And while her pregnant sister seems an unlikely culprit, each new detail seems to point to her guilt. Desperate to protect her, Vera vows to find out what really happened.

As evidence emerges in both cases, Vera and Bent work to unravel a dangerous web of secrets to get to the truth. But their investigations reveal more than they ever expected.

Adele’s Review:

This reviewer looked forward to reading Secrets You Can’t Keep, book three in the Vera Boyett series, and the novel did not disappoint. I think it’s the best of the series so far and hope there are more books planned. Every aspect of the novel is riveting, the characters are well drawn, and the writing is flawless. The plotlines involving multiple murders create especially difficult crimes for Vera and Sheriff Gray Benton to solve, but the pair are relentless in their pursuit of justice. I couldn’t put the book down.

For those of us who enjoy a touch of romance in our stories, Vera and Bent’s personal relationship grows deeper in this novel, and I absolutely loved that. Author Debra Webb has written many romantic suspense novels, which probably explains the addition of an emotional connection between the protagonists in her standalones.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Secrets You Can’t Keep. Recommended.
