Don't Tell A Soul: A Mystery Thriller

A celebrity couple. Tabloid darlings. He's been missing for six months.

Did she kill him?

Why can't she remember?

David Ash, an indie rock star, has been missing for six months. Everyone in New York assumes his wife, former reality TV star Louisa Mantalos, has killed him. A popular true crime podcast is covering the case, and asking intrusive questions about Louisa's past.

Louisa is struggling to hold her life together and protect her two young sons from the news. Worst of all, an illness is changing her memories, and she can't recall what happened on the night David disappeared. Did she kill him? Did he leave her? She doesn't know.

Running out of options, she hires Constantin McGarry, an ex-con private eye from Queens. He's down on his luck and buries his heart beneath layers of irony and jokes, but he's the only person left in town willing to take Louisa's case. And it doesn't take long for Con to realise Louisa's story doesn't add up.

Gone Girl meets The Rockford Files in this dark, funny, and sexy thriller.
