Synopsis

New York Times and #1 international bestselling author Linwood Barclay delivers the second spine-chilling thriller in the Promise Falls trilogy. When private investigator Cal Weaver looks into a break-in at the home of a recently deceased man, he uncovers far more than he is prepared for after he finds a hidden room that was used for salacious activities. Perhaps something illegal … Detective Barry Duckworth is doggedly trying to solve two murders, one of which is three years old. He believes the killings are connected, since each featured a similar distinctive wound. And the key to his mystery may lie with Cal Weaver’s own case. As the lies begin to unravel, and another murder occurs, Cal and Barry find themselves headed straight into the heart of dark secrets as they uncover more startling truths about Promise Falls … “Excellent. Impossible to put down.”—Stephen King

During the local drive-in's last-ever triple feature, a mysterious explosion topples the screen, killing four people. It's not the only bi......more

4.5 stars! I'd like to thank Netgalley for providing my copy in exchange for a fair and honest review. I think I'm in the minority but I really enjoyed this one! For those new to the series, start with #1 Broken Promise as this is the second in the trilogy. Not much to hash up plot wise as this is the......more

Goodreads review by Barbara

3.5 stars This is the second book in the 'Broken Promise' trilogy. Plot-wise, the story could be read as a standalone. However, I'd strongly recommend readers begin with book one, for character development. ***** This sequel to Broken Promise picks up where the first book ended. Two women in Promise F......more
