I'll Never Tell by Catherine McKenzie

5.0

The more I think about this book, the more I like it. This is a cleverly written and carefully nuanced book about a family with secrets, and one young woman who paid the price for the secrets.
The MacAllister family runs a summer camp, and 20 years ago, there was a terrible tragedy. Now, gathered together to memorialize their parents, the family needs to come to grips with the tragedy, testing their long-held beliefs about the tragedy. A lot is at stake, including the future of the camp.
This family struggles to understand what happened 20 years ago, but in deciphering the mystery, they come face to face with secrets that have been held close for many years - and many of those secrets were founded on something that wasn't true at all.
The suspense level is high in this book, and while you know that the actual perpetrator is one of the people in the family, your suspicions constantly get proven wrong. This will keep you guessing to the end. There are several surprises in the book - and character development changes your mind more than once about a particular character.
Very well done!
