Thank you to NetGalley, Flatiron and Kate Alice Marshal for an ARC of No One Can Know in exchange for an honest review.

Synopsis quoted & review below.

"Emma hasn't told her husband much about her past. He knows her parents are dead and she hasn't spoken to her sisters in years. Then they lose their apartment, her husband gets laid off, and Emma discovers she's pregnant—right as the bank account slips into the red.

That's when Emma confesses that she has one more asset: her parents' house, which she owns jointly with her estranged sisters. They can't sell it, but they can live in it. But returning home means that Emma is forced to reveal her secrets to her husband: that the house is not a run-down farmhouse but a stately mansion, and that her parents died there.

Were murdered.

And that some people say Emma did it.

Emma and her sisters have never spoken about what really happened that night. Now, her return to the house may lure her sisters back, but it will also crack open family and small-town secrets lots of people don’t want revealed. As Emma struggles to reconnect with her old family and hold together her new one, she begins to realize that the things they have left unspoken all these years have put them in danger again."

I absolutely LOVED What Lies in the Woods, so I knew immediately that I HAD to get my hands/eyes on No One Can Know. I am sooooooo happy that it lived up to my high hopes!

This is very much a VERY twisty psychological thriller, which is totally my jam! Fast-paced with well-written characters and a crazy plot with LOTS of twists - honestly, what more can you ask for.

I would say start this one when you have plenty of time to read because you will not be putting it down until you finish.

Multiple POVS and multiple timelines - but still very easy to follow.

This second read for me of Marshall has solidified her as an auto-read author for me.

I HIGHLY recommend.

I love when a book explores dual timelines and presents the story with multiple POV’s. This book gave us both!

14 years ago their parents were murdered in their childhood home. Some people say that Emma did it. Emma and her sisters have never spoken about what really happened that night. Now, her return to the house may lure her sisters back, but it will also crack open family and small-town secrets lots of people don't want revealed. As Emma struggles to reconnect with her old family and hold together her new one, she begins to realize that the things they have left unspoken all these years have put them in danger again.

While the story is told with dual timelines and in the POV’s of the three estranged sisters. I really wish i liked this more. I wasn’t invested in the story or any of the characters and it took me a while to finish. While there were quite a few twists, there were also some plot holes for me. As we neared the last few chapters it felt that the writing was rushed to get us to a conclusion. I like being right and i was pleased to have guessed the final reveal pretty early on. Overall, I enjoyed the story and look forward to more from Kate Alice Marshall.

Thank you to Flatiron Books for letting me read this early!

I received an ARC of this book from Flatiron Books via NetGalley in exchange for my honest feedback. I finished the book very quickly - it is a fast read since you are kept guessing amidst many, many secrets. The insular small town vibes create unease. I enjoyed reading about how each sister changed in the years since the murders of their parents and also their difficulty in coming back to each other. The ending reminded me of those choose your own adventure books I read as a kid, or of the movie Clue - "this is how it might have happened, but now this is how it REALLY happened." Basically just when you think the author has revealed everything, it's all turned upside down again. Very clever.

This is one of the best books I’ve read in a long time! From the very first page I was pulled in and couldn’t stop reading, I just had to know what happened next. This is my first book from this author but definitely will not be my last!

A crazy story about three sisters whose parents were murdered and their life trajectory completely changes as they distance themselves and keep a million secrets because they think they are protecting each other.

This was such a fun read filled with a ton of twists, literally. When you think “oh wow final twist” the author laughs and throws another one our way. I loved the pace and character development, especially for Emma & JJ — growth! Definitely recommend this one to all my thriller lovers, 4⭐️

Thank you for providing me with an advanced reader’s copy of this title via NetGalley.

Thank you for an advance copy of this thriller by an author I enjoy. Emma and her husband Nathan move back into her family home after they have some hard times...problem is its a murder house. Her parents murder. And she was a suspect with the murdered still at large. The story has alternating POV of past/present with Emma and her 2 sisters, slowly unraveling what happened to the parents years before. Who is telling the truth? Who can we trust? The slow twists of this story were really fun. Great character development and unexpected reveals. I really enjoyed this one.

This is a fun, fast, thrilling read! I loved the relationship between Emma, JJ, and Daphne. I also enjoyed the past/present, then/now format.

No One Can Know is a mystery surrounding three estranged sisters and the murder of their parents. Alternating between now and then chapters as well as each sister’s POV, the writing hooked me in immediately. While the build up was a slow burn, there were a lot of twists in the last quarter of the book, making it a fun popcorn thriller. Plus, having two sisters myself, I love how this dived into complex sister relationships and the lengths they would go to protect each other. I will say, I figured out who the culprit was prior to the end reveal, but I think that goes with small-town mysteries as there are usually less suspects.

Read if you like:

No One Can Know by Kate Alice Marshall is an easy to read thriller that had me hooked in the first chapter. Murder and family drama fill the pages. I enjoyed the premise of the book, and the points of view of the three sisters set in multiple timelines helped move the story forward.
However, as I continued reading I found it hard to connect or feel emotion toward the characters. The final 20% of the book jumped around quite a bit with a lot happening and had me second guessing what I just read.
Overall, I give No One Can Know 3 stars.
Thank you to NetGalley and Flatiron Books for an advance copy in return for my honest review.

Thank you Netgalley and Flatiron books for allowing me to review this book. Next, this was really good story. It keeps you guessing until the very last chapter. Or, if you're like me—you'll develop a laundry list of what maybe could have happened and compare notes when you reach the last chapter. The character development was superb. Overall, this is an easy read. You can get through in one to two days.

This book kept me guessing. I definitely did not expect some of the twists. I did enjoy the character development and their personalities.

Emma and her husband start having financial difficulties. They move back into the mansion her parents were murdered in when she was a teenager. Trouble arises because people think she was the one that killed her parents.
This book had many twists and turns and was an excellent read. I’d like to thank NetGalley and Flatiron Books for the chance to read this ARC!

Well, this was good!

This is one of those books where I really wasn’t sure about the *who* of everything until the very end. The book kept me guessing!

I loved our sisters and their pasts (and some of their presents) had me heartbroken.

I will say that the book started just a little slowly for me. However, I’m glad I stuck with it because by a quarter of the way through, I was hooked.

Highly suspenseful and a very good read!

A bit of a miss for me. Didn't enjoy as much as her adult debut. This one felt a bit all over the place. I am left confused. I am not sure if I would recommend it as I did not connect with the story or characters.

This book was unputdownable.it immediately sucked me in and held me through to the last chapter.
It’s a mystery that just kept me guessing and so many twists in this whodunnit.

No One Can Know follows Emma and her two sisters, Daphne and Juliette. The sisters grew up in a very strict and conservative household, released only when their parents were murdered. Was it one of the sisters or someone else? This story takes us through the past and present through each of the sisters’ point of view and the twist will leave you speechless.

I gave this book 5 stars not only because it threw me for a loop right up until the very last paragraph, but also because it made me feel almost protective over the sisters. It was so well written and I’m super glad I was granted this ARC!

Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review!

This book was absolute blast. I loved the twists and turns in it. I think for some it might border on too many twists/parts to the murder but it was just right for me. They were fun while also not being too out there. I do think the book felt a bit too long and personally I could have done without the romantic subplot. However overall I had a really fun time with this book!

A Whodunnit of the best kind! Kate Alice Marshall’s NO ONE CAN KNOW had me guessing from the first page to last.

Emma Palmer, nine weeks pregnant and her husband, Nathan return to the family home after Nathan loses his job. But this isn’t just any family home, it’s the place where Emma’s parents were murdered. It was always suspected that Emma and her boyfriend Gabriel Mahoney were responsible for the deaths, but it was never proven. Her sisters, Daphne, a home health/hospice nurse and Juliette have had no contact with Emma since the night of the slayings. They were always adamant that Emma could not have killed their parents. Now that Emma has returned, Juliette makes contact with her and tries to forge some type of relationship. But as they begin repairs on the property, things are discovered that can throw a new light on the whole murder. It seems that all of the sisters were hiding, dark secrets both then and now. Then Emma‘s world is shattered once again when Nathan is murdered.

What the heck is going on here? Who is hiding what and can Emma’s former mentor shed light on the entire situation? And what about the police? Are they helping or hindering the investigations? Who is working to keep the truth from being revealed?

I could not put this book down. There were constant twists, and turns that kept me on the edge of my seat. And I was shocked to find out how the murder actually occurred. If you like dark, twisty psychological thrillers that will pull you in and not let go, this is the one for you.

Thank you, Netgalley and Flat Iron Books for this ARC opportunity. All opinions are my own and are given voluntarily.

I have to start this by saying, I REALLY REALLY enjoyed this book! A detailed whodunit domestic thriller, “No One Can Know” keeps the reader invested in the story of the Palmer family while guessing how things went wrong. Once I started reading I had a hard time putting this book down.

After falling on harder times, Emma and her husband come back to her childhood home, one that she and her sisters own after the murder of her parents. In doing so, Emma has to confront her past as the #1 suspect of her parent’s murder as well as let her husband in on secrets she fought hard to keep hidden.

This thriller was riveting, giving the reader just enough detail chapter by chapter to keep my on the edge of my seat. Every time I thought I had the ending figured out, something new was added to change my suspicions. There are a ton of plot twists in this book, and I was here for all of them. None of them seemed far fetched and I think they added to the overall story. I grew to like each sister and became invested in their stories. When I got to the end of the book, I wasn’t letdown or frustrated with the ending at all.

I will say that I always thought I was further along in the book than my kindle told me I was. There is a lot of detail and quite a few twists that make you think rather than speed through the book…with that said, I really enjoyed this one and think those who like a good thriller will as well.

**A big thank you to Flatiron Books and NetGalley for the advanced copy of this book! All opinions are my own.**

A crazy bonkers ride and I loved every single second of it. I sometimes find myself avoiding thrillers only because I've read so many and they can sometimes feel redundant. THIS ONE? Insane. I loved it. LOVED IT. Cannot recommend it highly enough.
