Summary

’A fast-paced, gripping thriller.’ B A Paris, bestselling author of Behind Closed Doors and The Breakdown

'Intense and brilliantly uncomfortable reading' Lisa Hall, bestselling author of Between You and Me

A happy child.

Every parent knows the world can be scary. Lawyer Jen Sutton knows it better than most. And she’ll go to any length to protect her son from what – and who – lies outside their front door.

A loving mother.

Some might say she’s being overprotective. But isn’t it a mother’s duty to protect her child from harm?

A family built on a lie.

Jen has kept her secrets safe. Until the postcard arrives, signed by the one person she hoped would never catch up with her… and her new case begins to feel a little too close to home.

One thing is clear: Jen has been found.

Now, she faces a choice. Run, and lose everything? Or fight – and risk her son discovering the truth.

Don’t Say a Word is an electrifying psychological thriller from A.L. Bird – perfect for fans of C.L. Taylor and Sue Fortin.

‘A pacy, action-packed, brilliantly plotted psychological thriller with one hell of a showdown. I absolutely loved it!’ – Diane Jeffrey, author of Those Who Lie

Hard to Follow

I am only on chapter 15 but am finding it really hard to follow and really hard to figure out who is who and what their involvement is with who!! Also it just seems to be about legal cases, which I cant figure out if they are related to the story or not.

Names from the past keep being mentioned, but as yet I dont know who they are, what they have done or why she is hiding from them.

I will start the book again and try again, as some of the reviews are really good,

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
