<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> "Agatha is pregnant and works part-time stocking shelves at a grocery store in a ritzy London suburb, counting down the days until her baby is due. As the hours of her shifts creep by in increasing discomfort, the one thing she looks forward to at work is catching a glimpse of Meghan, the effortlessly chic customer whose elegant lifestyle dazzles her. Meghan has it all: two perfect children, a handsome husband, a happy marriage, a stylish group of friends, and she writes perfectly droll confessional posts on her popular parenting blog--posts that Agatha reads with devotion each night as she waits for her absent boyfriend, the father of her baby, to maybe return her calls. When Agatha learns that Meghan is pregnant again, and that their due dates fall within the same month, she finally musters up the courage to speak to her, thrilled that they now have the ordeal of childbearing in common. Little does Meghan know that the mundane exchange she has with a grocery store employee during a hurried afternoon shopping trip is about to change the course of her not-so-perfect life forever."-- <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>"Two terrific female characters, both with secrets.

And the one thing Agatha looks forward to each day is catching a glimpse of her, the effortlessly chic customer at the grocery store where she works stocking shelves. Meghan has it all: two adorable children, a handsome and successful husband, a happy marriage, a beautiful house, and a popular parenting blog that Agatha reads with devotion each night as she waits for her absent boyfriend, the father of the baby growing inside her, to return her calls. <p/>Yet if Agatha could look beyond the gloss and trappings of Meghan's "perfect life," she'd see the flaws and doubts. Meghan has her secrets too, especially one that she dare not <i>ever</i> tell. Soon the lives of these two women will collide in the most spellbinding and intimate of ways, until their secrets are exposed by one shocking act that cannot be undone. From internationally bestselling author Michael Robotham, <i>The Secrets She Keeps</i> is a dark, exquisite, and twisted page-turner so full of surprises, you'll find it impossible to put down. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "[An] emotionally charged domestic thriller...Robotham's narrative is intimate and insightful.
