Family secrets. Historical wrongs. And the truths that refuse to stay buried.

Savannah Webster is trying to find her way forward. She and her husband, Hez, have been separated since tragedy tore them apart and he began numbing his grief and guilt with alcohol. She returned to Tupelo Grove University, which her family helped found over a century ago, to teach history.

When Hez turns up in her classroom asking for a second chance, she rejects the idea immediately. But twenty-four hours later she’s under suspicion for murder, and since Hez is the best attorney she knows, she reluctantly asks him for help. They suspect the murder is tied to someone selling off the university’s pre-Columbian artifacts, but the secrets go much deeper than they realize.

The only hope they’ve got is each other, and they’re going to have to put their past behind them if they’re going to stay alive long enough to uncover all that’s hidden.


  • Contemporary romantic suspense

  • Perfect for fans of Laura Griffin, Laura Dave, Sarah Pearse, Allison Brennan, and Dani Pettrey

  • First installment in the Tupelo Grove series

  • Book length: approximately 90,000 words

  • Includes discussion questions for book clubs

Reviews

'This is an explosive beginning to a new series and a dynamic author partnership between Coble ('Pelican Harbor' series) and practicing lawyer Acker. Will appeal to fans of the legal thrillers of Randy Singer and Robert Whitlow.' 'Get ready to be hooked! Brace yourself for a thrill ride as Coble and Acker masterfully weave a web of suspense in WHAT WE HIDE, where secrets simmer and unexpected twists leave you guessing until the shocking finale.' 'Much is hidden in Tupelo Grove and Pelican Harbor. In WHAT WE HIDE, expert storytellers Colleen Coble and Rick Acker will take you on a riveting ride through a picturesque Southern town inhabited by characters who will pull you in and make you care. Hidden truths find their way into the light -- sometimes quickly, often slowly in the face of great obstacles and danger. Once you start reading, you won't put this book down.' 'This book has it all. Intrigue, suspense and the mysteries of the heart, woven together masterfully by the great new pairing of Coble and Acker. Fans of their individual books will not be disappointed. New readers will be delighted.' 'WHAT WE HIDE grabbed me with the first chapter and had me reading until two in the morning with its twisty plot and engaging characters.' 'When you combine two brilliant storytellers such as Coble and Acker, the result is a beautiful well-crafted legal thriller that keeps the reader utterly riveted. If you're looking for a novel that's edge-of-the-seat-compelling, emotionally engaging, and nail-bitingly (I know that's not a word, but it fits) suspenseful, look no further than WHAT WE HIDE. With its compelling narrative, well-rounded characters, and intricate plot, this is a must-read, goes-on-the keeper-shelf, that will stay with you long after the final page is turned.' 'Bestsellers Coble (BREAK OF DAY) and Acker (GUILTY BLOOD) team up for a heart-pounding tale of stolen artifacts and murder . . . The second-chance romance adds dimension to the well-plotted whodunit, which leaves more than a few secrets to be uncovered in the next installment. Readers will be on tenterhooks.' 'Coble and Acker have forged a seamless partnership with a singular voice. I honestly can't tell where one writer starts and the other ends. WHAT WE HIDE is a crisp and hard-charging start to a legal suspense series that tests the boundaries of yesterday's secrets against today's lies, all while trying to escape tomorrow's verdict. From courtroom to the shadow of a decaying Gothic university, it's a high-stakes ride through love, second chances and an ending you won't soon forget.' Expand reviews
