Amazon reviewer Maddy's Mom says "This book "hooked" me right from the beginning when a young girl's life ends in the woods in Vermont. It kind of reminded me of Blair Witch. Then a school nurse, Kate who lives in Washington state comes back to her hometown in Vermont to care for her mother. Kate learns of the murder of the young girl and it brings back memories 30 years ago when she was a 5th grader and knew a girl Del who was also murdered. Kate is still bothered by what really happened to her friend so many years ago and starts reconnecting with events and people from the past that ultimately leads to closure in the end. Written in both the past and present, it's a great story and very hard to put down! Quick read. I look forward to more from this author."
Forty-one-year-old school nurse Kate Cypher has returned home to rural Vermont to care for her mother who's afflicted with Alzheimer's. On the night she arrives, a young girl is murdered—a horrific crime that eerily mirrors another from Kate's childhood. Three decades earlier, her dirt-poor friend Del—shunned and derided by classmates as "Potato Girl"—was brutally slain. Del's killer was never found, while the victim has since achieved immortality in local legends and ghost stories. Now, as this new murder investigation draws Kate irresistibly in, her past and present collide in terrifying, unexpected ways. Because nothing is quite what it seems . . . and the grim specters of her youth are far from forgotten.
More than just a murder mystery, Jennifer McMahon's extraordinary debut novel, Promise Not to Tell, is a story of friendship and family, devotion and betrayal—tautly written, deeply insightful, beautifully evocative, and utterly unforgettable.
