Brought to you by Penguin.

An exhilarating novel about a family's devastating accident and the tangle of secrets and lies it reveals . . .

The holidays are here. The extended family has gathered. The cars are packed and the convoy sets off.

The cottage is a few hours' drive - but not everyone will live to see it . . .

For Jill, her three sons, their wives and children, a terrifying road crash will tear apart their family.

The crash will be an accident but the shattering that follows has been long coming.

Because at the heart of this family lies a secret - concealed, wrestled with, festering and harmful - and nothing now can stop it coming out.

But will any of them survive it?

Reviews

With terrific characters, little truth bombs exploding throughout and a smashing denouement, this book is a must-read for anybody seeking a family-drama-meets-mystery novel The more I read, the quicker I turned the pages. Stunningly vivid characters torn apart by family secrets. Loved it. At times dark and discomfiting, but always relatable and entertaining, with characters you feel you know, You Need To Know is stay-up-late addictive. The perfect holiday read. Secrets spill out as the story twists and turns and, with its pacy end, this is a summer must With intriguing twists and turns and a pacy end, this is a perfect summer read A dissection of the cobwebs of relationships that, on one hand, keep families tied together; but on another drive them apart Nicola Moriarty has a gift for domestic drama, cracking pace, and skilful narrative timing Clever, tense and jam-packed with twists and turns you won't see coming . . . while there's quite a large cast of characters to follow, you never lose track of what's happening thanks to Moriarty's polished writing and character-work. Dark, twisty and utterly enthralling, You Need to Know is a gripping domestic thriller with Netflix written all over it. It is yet another unputdownable read from the very talented Nicola Moriarty You Need to Know offers a tense, well-crafted storyline, interesting, multifaceted characters, and a sensational climax. I think Nicola Moriarty has found her niche in the Aussie domestic thriller genre Moriarty has delivered another gripping domestic drama about secrets, lies and fractured families. She builds the tension so expertly, with twists and turns leading towards one cracking end, that you may well need to see a chiropractor afterwards A brilliant thriller Praise for Nicola Moriarty Had me turning the pages into the small hours Expect dark themes and plot twists a plenty Dramatic, mysterious and compelling Kept me guessing to the end With secrets and intrigue, this is a compulsive read Moriarty rocks the drama genre Nicola Moriarty belongs to a family tree laded with writers. She more than holds her own Nicola's got great pace and snappy dialogue, and I especially like her male characters Expand reviews
