CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET?
A body in a muddy field. A village that won't say a word. And a lone constable who is starting to realise the murder is the least of it.
On the surface, Pendlewick is everything a quiet English village should be: stone cottages, tidy gardens, neighbours who nod politely on the lane. Then a local farmer is found dead in a field, and the nodding stops.
The villagers close ranks. The Clitheroe police shrug it off. And Constable James Warburton is left to investigate alone, with nobody trusting him and nobody helping.
But Warburton can't let it go. As he digs, the clues lead him away from the farm and back to 1932.
Hitler's Nazi Party is gaining ground, and a sinister plan is taking shape. It involves powerful people on both sides of the Atlantic and reaches into the heart of a Lancashire village that has kept its silence for decades.
When the case grows too big for one man, the legendary Scottish detective Robert Anderson arrives. The two are an unlikely pair, each carrying demons of their own. Together they race to uncover a conspiracy that could threaten world peace, in a village where loyalty is tested at every turn and the line between friend and enemy keeps shifting.
Who can they trust? Who is lying? And who is Pendlewick willing to kill to protect?
Based loosely on true events, CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET? is a gripping, atmospheric murder mystery with a historical thriller at its core. It is a story of trust, betrayal and one man's stubborn fight for the truth.
