Don't Tell A Soul A Mystery Thriller

Louisa doesn't feel capable of murder. But her husband is missing. Did she kill him? Why can't she remember? Louisa Mantalos is a C-list celebrity, and Dave is an indie rock star. Nothing about their life together is private. Drug problems. Criminal friends. Nightclub fights. They've lived it all in public. But Dave's been missing now for six months, and everyone in New York assumes she killed him. A popular true crime podcast is covering the case, and asking intrusive questions about Louisa's past, and she is struggling to hold her life together and protect her two young sons from the news. But now she has a medical condition affecting her memory. She can't remember what happened the night Dave disappeared. Running out of options, feeling lost and alone, she hires Constantin McGarry, an ex-con private eye from Queens. He's down on his luck and buries his heart beneath layers of irony and jokes, but he's the only person left in town willing to take Louisa's case. And it doesn't take long for Con to realise Louisa's story doesn't add up. But is she lying, or does she really not remember?
