Publisher Description
Each of us has a question we dread. When the simple community of Lakehaven is shaken by a violent crime, doubts begin to arise among the locals about whom they can trust.
In a quiet neighborhood in the wealthy Austin suburb of Lakehaven, the body of Danielle Roberts is discovered on a park bench. Danielle was a beloved member of the community, an adoption consultant who delivered the joy of parenthood to a number of local families. Her murder shocks Lakehaven.
Perhaps no other family is as crushed as the Pollitts, who lived two houses down from Danielle and thought of her almost like family. Her death becomes the catalyst for a maelstrom of suspicion and intrigue. You have been told a huge lie, an anonymous email charges the son, Grant. No one can learn the truth now, thinks the father, Kyle. Never ask me what I'd do to protect my family, resolves the wife, Iris. I'll do whatever it takes to save him, vows the daughter, Julia, of Danielle's grieving teenage son.
The Pollitts always thought they'd always be there for each other. When each begins to suspect the others of the unimaginable, the strength of their bonds will be tested in extraordinary new ways. The latest from New York Times bestselling author Jeff Abbott ishis most suspenseful thriller yet: a riveting tale of the dangerous secrets one family has concealed -- and what happens when the question each Pollitt hoped they'd never be asked threatens to expose their darkest truths.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
The characters in this brain-twisting murder mystery never know whom to trust, which is pretty intense considering they’re all friends and family. Never Ask Me unfolds in an upscale Austin suburb, where adoption consultant Danielle is found dead by her teenage son, Ned, and his friend Julia. After this shocking reveal, the damning circumstances and suspicious connections come hard and fast. Someone’s sending threatening emails to Julia’s brother—whose adoption was handled by Danielle—and Ned and Julia are mixed up in some pretty shady stuff themselves. Author Jeff Abbott ratchets up the tension with every shocking family secret that comes to light. The audiobook’s multiple narrators kept us guessing about whom to believe…or not. Combining white-knuckle suspense and dysfunctional family drama, Never Ask Me is a breathless listen.
