Review:
"A pulse-pounding treat with a coiling plot. This one provides intelligent and intriguing thrills about love, loyalty, and courage. Way ahead of the pack." - Steve Berry, New York Times #1 and international Best-Selling Author
"Tell Me No Secrets has it all--strong, unforgettable characters, a beautiful setting, dark secrets, and a haunting story that rises like a deadly storm out of the turbulent borderland between love and faith, the modern world, and traditional Appalachian culture." -Roger Johns, Award-winning author of the Wallace Hartman Mysteries
"In Tell Me No Secrets, Lynn Chandler Willis weaves a gripping and lush tale of big city crime colliding with backwoods folklore where the secrets are as dark and mysterious as the Appalachian Mountains. Ava Logan is the kind of sympathetic but strong heroine who juggles a demanding job with the struggles of family life...someone we can all relate to and cheer for. I was drawn in from the very first page, desperately wanted to find out what happened, but hated to see it come to an end.
~~Annette Dashofy, USA Today bestselling author of the Zoe Chambers Mystery Series
