A SMALL TOWN. A SHOCKING CRIME.
YOU’LL SUSPECT EVERY CHARACTER. BUT YOU’LL NEVER GUESS THE ENDING.
Ben Harper’s life changed for ever the day his older brother Nick was murdered by two classmates. It was a crime that shocked the nation and catapulted Ben’s family and their idyllic hometown, Haddley, into the spotlight.
Twenty years on, Ben is one of the best investigative journalists in the country and settled back in Haddley, thanks to the support of its close-knit community. But then a fresh murder case shines new light on his brother’s death and throws suspicion on those closest to him.
Ben is about to discover that in Haddley no one is as they seem. Everyone has something to hide.
And someone will do anything to keep the truth buried . . .

I adored TWELVE SECRETS - It was so much twisty-turny fun and I loved the characters and how their secrets unravelled. It's a fast-paced, utterly gripping thriller - a definite twelve out of ten!
Twelve Secrets is rather special. So clever, so engrossing, a genuine 'just one more page' kind of book
Original, unputdownable and a really great read
Ominous at the beginning, breathless by the end ... this is excellent hardcore suspense
A pacey thriller full of twists and turns. You won't be able to put TWELVE SECRETS down until the very end.
Fast-paced and brimming with superb characters. I couldn't put it down for a single second. Twelve stars!
Absolutely addictive. An unforgettable and nuanced cast of characters, a claustrophobic setting, and a suspenseful and chilling examination of the dark and destructive power of secrets. You will sleep with your eyes open after reading this one.
Fast-paced and shocking.
A tightly-woven thriller that races to a conclusion I didn't see coming
Satisfyingly twisty, straight from Harlan Coben territory and surely Netflix bound
A fine debut
Twelve Secrets contains cliff-hangers and revelations galore. [It] is all plot, plot, plot - and, boy, what a lot it's got.
A page-turner with a final revelation that satisfies by being unguessable but retrospectively inevitable
Utterly absorbing
One very twisty tale
A fantastic, plot-twisting debut. Original and addictive.
What a tangled web! Brilliantly woven and then carefully unravelled for the big revelations at the end. A totally gripping read.
Twelve Secrets is a smart, satisfying, one-of-a-kind thriller that entertained me from start to finish. It examines the confluence of family loyalties and dark secrets while keeping the plot boiling.
