The Secrets We Bury- Mary Bush-crime/psychological thriller

A mother and son are found dead in a church. Could it be muder with

suicide? Valentina is a death scene investigator and isn’t convinced that

this is the case due to some aspects at the scene. The dead woman

Gabriella’s family have a past and as a high profile family appear to have

suppressed some things- things that may have relevance to Gabriella's

death. Years ago Gabriella's twin siblings were found dead after an

incident at their pool. Gabriella was meant to be watching them and

had her two friends over. Her sister Bridget is kept away from people,

her mother citing autism and not being able to cope with company. Is

this really the case and what more are the wealthy Morgan family

hiding? A family that hides behind money and uses it to make things

go away from the press- when the twins died certain facts were

withheld from the press at the insistence of the family. This is a very

cleverly thought out read. For the most part it's a crime book and

then…. I won’t spoil anything. One to me where there is meticulous

planning and research- I learn a thing or two along the way. I liked

Val and her tenacity for the truth and would happily read other

books where she takes the lead. A thoroughly enjoyable read that

kept me thinking- just how I like it!
