Why read it?
1 author picked All Our Secrets as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I love a good slow reveal of backstory in a mystery. Pair that with a tense, high-stakes present-day mystery, and I cannot put the book down. The backstory in this book is complex, and the perfect number of hints were given throughout to keep me wanting to know more.

There were times when it felt like I understood more of what was happening than the character did, and I wanted to do the classic horror-movie-watching…
From Helen's list on mysteries to keep you on the edge of your seat.
