From Catherine McKenzie, the instant bestselling author of The Good Liar, comes a riveting domestic suspense in the vein of Liane Moriarty that sees five siblings forced to confront a tragedy they thought was buried long ago. What happened to Amanda Holmes? After the sudden death of their parents, the MacAllister children return to the run-down summer camp where they spent their childhood. The four sisters and their elder brother haven’t all been together at Camp Macaw in over twenty years—ever since a tragic and mysterious accident. Over the course of the Labour Day weekend, the siblings must determine what to do with the property, now worth millions. But a stunning condition of their father’s will compels them to face their past—and come to a decision that threatens to tear them apart forever. A sharp and engrossing novel of suspense, I’ll Never Tell reveals what happens when the secrets and lies that hold a family together are finally exposed.

Summer camp is supposed to be full of fun memories and laughter. But one year stands out in the McAllister kids minds, as the summer of secrets. When one of the campers is attacked, left in a vegetative state, they are left wondering who was responsible and why.
The many secrets come back to haunt them after their parents deaths, and the questions are once again brought to the surface, as their father believes he knows who was responsible, but didn't have the proof. It is up to the siblings to decide which is guilty, and who will inherit the camp.
A good read, but I did figure out, “who done it,” about halfway through the book, it was just one of those, yeah that makes the most sense moments. While the book was an enjoyable read, there were a few times where it felt as though it drug just a little bit, but then it would pick back up - rinse and repeat.

What Book Are You Reading? I'll never tell. (Ok, so that was a fun joke. The first couple... thousand... times I used it when people were asking me what I was reading.) But seriously, this is an awesome book. McKenzie does an excellent job here of keeping the reader guessing until the final reveal within the last 10% of the book, and even includes an unexpected bonus surprise closer to 2/3 in. Great job of keeping the tale moving through multiple characters' perspectives, and fantastic story overall.
