Synopsis

Who killed Jack Sullivan?Welcome to Hamlet. Population: 192.You can't find it on any map, GPS, or directions site. A small village tucked between a mountain and a valley, Hamlet is the sort of place where everyone knows everyone—and their business, too. There's no television. No internet. No phones. Only one way in and, for the locals, barely any way out. The sheriff is the law, the only doctor moonlights as the coroner, and outsiders hardly ever come to town.Murders are even rarer.A treacherous storm, a flat tire, and a touch of serendipity causes Tessa Sullivan and her husband Jack to stumble upon the narrow strait that leads into Hamlet. It was supposed to be a one night stop until the rain let up and Jack could figure out how to fix the tire—until Tess lands herself in the local jail cell overnight and Jack is found dead in their hotel room the next morning. There's no doubt it was murder, but with Sullivan’s gentle wife having an airtight alibi, the sheriff has to wonder: who had any cause to kill the outsider? And is he the only victim?Dr. De Angelis doesn’t think so. Neither does Deputy Walsh. With Tess looking more and more like the killer’s next target, both men take the time to comfort and protect the young widow. But only one of them is sincere. The other just wants her to himself now that her husband is out of the way.Alone and afraid, who can she trust?* Don't Trust Meis a full-length murder mystery/ domestic thriller novel (85,000+ words) set in Hamlet, a cozy small town in the middle of nowhere—where everyone knows your name and, even so, no one is safe...

I loved this book so much. It was so beautiful. The cover is amazing and the story is just as good. The story takes place in the town of Hamlet which I enjoyed. The town has a dark and eerie feel to it. The creepy tone of the book is evident from the first page. It is vivid and tragic. The story was......more

This is a difficult review for me to write as I hate to be overly negative, particularly when I have been sent a free copy of a book in exchange for a review. I know that every author puts their heart and soul into each book and for Jessica Lynch, this is her debut, so for her this will be her pride......more

"Predictable" This took a long time to get the ending most readers will see a mile off. When a character has a big pointy arrow over their head from Day One it's obvious it wasn't them. There was nothing in this first book in the Hamlet series to make me rush out to get the next instalment, I'm afrai......more

Goodreads review by Ronald on March 11, 2019

On its surface Don’t Trust Me by Jessica Lynch is a murder mystery with an interesting puzzle. The prime suspect in the murder of Jack is his wife, Tessie/Tess/Tessa. That goes with the time-honored theory that it is more likely the spouse, or at least people closest to the victim, committed the cri......more
