Publisher's Summary
England, 1959. Laurel Nicolson is 16 years old, dreaming alone in her childhood tree house during a family celebration at their home, Green Acres Farm. She spies a stranger coming up the long road to the farm and then observes her mother, Dorothy, speaking to him. And then she witnesses a crime.
Fifty years later, Laurel is a successful and well-regarded actress, living in London. She returns to Green Acres for Dorothy’s ninetieth birthday and finds herself overwhelmed by memories and questions she has not thought about for decades. She decides to find out the truth about the events of that summer day and lay to rest her own feelings of guilt. One photograph, of her mother and a woman Laurel has never met, called Vivian, is her first clue.
The Secret Keeper explores longings and dreams, the lengths some people go to fulfill them, and the strange consequences they sometimes have. It is a story of lovers, friends, dreamers and schemers, play-acting and deception, told against a backdrop of events that changed the world.

Nice and easy. Sussed it out at the beginning
Nice and easy. Romantic and well written and read. But simple in essence , I guessed what had happened early on (and that’s unlike me). Nevertheless. Great story. My mind was thrown to the dark war times easily.

Simply captivating!
This book was amazing! Complex and thoughtful and engaging. So clever in fact that I almost missed the last section because I thought everything had been wrapped up, just wonderful!

Liked the story but
Found the narration clumsy and annoying, The characters seemed to lose their substance in the process.

First Kate Morton story I read, first as a library book, then my own copy, and now as an audiobook. Love it every time!
