This book had me hooked from the first chapter! The characters are interesting, the story line is intriguing and the twists and turns kept coming. This one had an eerie setting and some gory scenes. I loved the conclusion and how everything wrapped up. If you’re looking for a true physiological thriller I would recommend this one. Overall, loved this and I will be checking out other books from this author!

The characters were very interesting in this one with a lot to delve into despite it being quite a quick read. I did see a few of the twists coming but this book also managed to surprise me as well!

I never seen the ending coming. The story was about a teenager that suffered abuse and woman that suffered abuse as a child. The two ladies live collide and nothing good comes from it. The book keeps you hook from page 1. This book will seen be a New York Times bestseller!

What a twisted take this book is.

When we think of twins we think of two people who have this tight bond. Who have this way of knowing what the other thinks without a word being said.

Meet Vera and Kevin. They have the bond………until they didn’t.

What a twisted tale! I didn't want to put this one down.

Wow I was expecting almost none of this. What a mess! I loved and hated this in equal measures. It was just so weird and fun! Definitely worth the time to read.

Like omg God this book kept me on the edge of my seat from start to finish.
I cant believe what her brother done everything that happened and everyone who got hert was all because of his set up that one fatal night .
I will definitely recommend this book to friends and family it's a fantastic read well done :)

Don’t Tell a Soul is a gripping tale of secrets, betrayal, and redemption. Set against the backdrop of a small coastal town, the novel explores the complexities of family dynamics and the haunting power of buried truths.

The story revolves around the mysterious disappearance of Lily Turner, a young woman with a troubled past. As her sister, Emma, delves into the enigma surrounding Lily’s vanishing act, she uncovers a web of lies, hidden agendas, and unexpected alliances. The narrative alternates between past and present, gradually revealing the events that led to Lily’s disappearance.

Huntley crafts well-rounded characters, each with their own secrets. Emma’s determination and vulnerability make her relatable. The coastal setting is vividly depicted, evoking a sense of isolation and unease. The plot twists keep readers guessing, and the tension steadily escalates.

While the alternating timelines add depth, some sections feel a little slow, especially at the start, and some of the side characters lack development. It was a little predictable in places

Overall, Don’t Tell a Soul is a compelling mystery that explores the lengths we’ll go to protect our loved ones—even when faced with uncomfortable truths.

It took me a little longer to read this book as it seemed a little slow to start. Saying that, it did speed up as I got further into it. Vera was the type of person you don't know whether to feel sorry for or fear, but it soon became clear she was someone you shouldn't upset! There are other things I could say, but I don't want to spoil it by mentioning things that will make it easy to guess the end.

a good thriller! I liked the story as well as the plot but there were a lot of things that I already predicted which left me kind of unsatisfied in the end! overall a good thriller inbetween books!

Page Turner! I devoured this book in 24 hours and have no regrets. Essentially is a story about 17 year old Elle and 37 year old Vera, two characters with similar backgrounds who form an unlikely friendship. However, one of them harbors a deep-dark secret. The book is filled with twists and told through multiple points of view, making the story both intriguing and engaging. There are triggers of alcoholism & abuse, as an FYI.

I absolutely loved this book! Had the right amount of suspense, I love dual POV books and this is what this book is. It was an easy read and I felt myself constantly reaching for it.

Don’t Tell a Soul by Jessica Huntley centers around Elle and Vera, two characters with similar backgrounds who form an unlikely friendship. However, one of them harbors a dark secret. The book is filled with twists and told through multiple points of view, making the story both intriguing and engaging. While Vera was my least favorite character and Elle came across as quite naive, I could understand their decisions as the story unfolded. I read this book quickly as it was well paced but be sure to check the trigger warnings before diving in.

Thank you to NetGalley and Inkubator Books for providing this ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Wow just wow. This is my second book of Jessica’s, and this is superb. The story covers a lot trigger warning topics, I definitely think Jessica has done a great job writing it lighter. I loved the story, read it in two days, literally couldn’t get enough of it.
I can not wait to see what Jessica creates next.

This book was hard tonight out down. Great thriller that kept me wanting to read the next chapter. Great book easy to read and the story was wonderful.

I actually enjoyed this book for more than I thought I was going to. It was a quick, easy read, not too bogged down with complex plot points or details. I enjoyed the straightforwardness, though I did find the end to be a little too silly. Overall it was a good read!

I really enjoyed this twisty thriller! The characters were well developed causing me to feel and care about them. I also liked the theme, scenery and plot of this story. It kept my interest from the start and it was hard to put down. The twists were great! Even though the subject was hard to read at times, the author told it in a way that it didn’t scar me. Thank you so much for a copy, I plan to read more from this author.

This book was okay but a little predictable. It was easy to read and very fast paced which kept me engaged. I’m sure thriller loves will enjoy this one.

This is a book you don’t want to put down. You are constantly engaged in wanting to find out more. Really enjoyed the multiple POVs. Plenty of unexpected moments and a great look into some unwell minds. Everything was well answered by the end also.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It’s not very long, just over 200 pages, which makes it a great beach-read in my opinion (provided you like reading thrillers at the beach like I do). The short length doesn’t mean it’s missing anything, in fact I’d argue it allowed the author to be succinct and not drone on with unnecessary details or interactions. Every moment in this book had a purpose.
There were multiple little twists to this book, most of which had some allusion to them so it wasn’t a huge surprise even if you weren’t paying too much attention. This made the one twist at the very end with the previous runaway teen an actual shock to find out. Also to find out that there was a mastermind behind the whole plot and how it went so wrong for them was an impressive mind-messer.
Was this the best thriller ever? Not really. I wasn’t particularly worried for the young female main character as nothing really felt high-stakes to me despite her being in mortal peril a couple of times. However it was a good read, quick and easy. That doesn’t make this a bad book, if anything it probably makes it more accessible than other thrillers that try to do too much.

Seventeen year old Elle is escaping her family home and ends up in a picturesque village in the Cotswold where she crosses paths with Vera, who is also trying to escape her past. The two women’s lives soon become tangled together as both try to keep their past secrets buried. But secrets never stay hidden for long and for Elle and Vera the aftermath of everything surfacing will be deadly.

This is a gripping, fast paced, quick read that draws you in from the beginning. It is a character driven story and I raced through the pages wanting to unlock the doors to the past to find out the ending of this mystery thriller.

Many thanks to NetGalley, author and publisher for my gifted eARC.
