Secrets to the grave by Tami Hoag


Another new author to add to my books I've read now. I will say this, this book is a grab you by your shirt tails and hold you tell you have to know how it ends. Marissa is brutely murdered in her home and her daughter Haley is almost choked to death but survives.

Tony Mendez is one of the cops on the case. With the help of Vince Leone and his wife Anne they will try and solve the case. Many people in the story have had affairs with Marissa, The Bordain's are a very powerful family in the Oak nowl area and the father Bruce and his son are two that are looked at.

Zahn Zander seemed like a very strange man to Vince when he talked to him. Zahn was the person that found Marissa and seemed very, very upset about the whole thing. But Vince has a problem the guy seems to be crazy or something. But when Vince tries to confront him he attacks Vince.

Dennis Farman is a very troubled kid and Anne has been trying to help him. But, he's fighting her every step of the way. He thinks of ways to hurt her and in the long run he does try too.

Anne has been trying to help Haley remember what had happened to her mother even though the little girl is only 4 years old. The only thing she says is bad daddy.

Gina is Marissa's best friend and when the cops go to talk to her and shows her a picture of what happened to Marissa. She ended up getting upset then she ends up disappearing and not even the cops know what happened.

Little dirty secrets start to come out as the cops look into people they think that could have killed Marissa. But by the end of the book you'll be surprised of who it really was. There's so many turns and twists in this book and ever damn page you read makes you want to continue reading it.

I love a good page turner and this one I'll give 5 stars for sure too. Its hard to tell to much of this story without giving some of the things away.

Well, I'm off to start another book. I hope you'll go and pick up this book if you haven't read it.
