No One Needs to Know

A Novel

By: Lindsay Cameron

Narrated by: Brittany Pressley, Rebecca Lowman

When an anonymous neighborhood forum gets hacked, the darkest secrets of New York’s wealthiest residents come to light—including some worth killing for—in this gripping suspense novel from the author of Just One Look.

“Big Little Lies meets Gossip Girl in this unputdownable read as smart and witty as it is delectable . . . I raced through it!”—Liv Constantine, author of The Last Mrs. Parrish

A HARPER’S BAZAAR BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR

It was all confidential. Right up to the moment when it wasn’t.

UrbanMyth: It was lauded as an alternative to the performative, show-your-best-self platforms—an anonymous discussion board grouped by zip code. The residents of Manhattan’s exclusive Upper East Side disclosed it all, things they would never share with their friends or their spouses: secret bank accounts, steamy affairs, tidbits of juicy gossip. The same people who, as parents, go to astonishing lengths to ensure that their children gain admission to the most prestigious boarding schools and universities. So when a “hacktivist” group breaks into the forum and exposes the real identity of each poster, the repercussions echo down Park Avenue with a force that none could have anticipated.

And someone ends up dead.

Is the murderer Heather, the outsider who would do anything to get her daughter into the elite’s good graces and into their even better schools? Norah, the high-powered executive failing to balance work with the emotional responsibilities of motherhood? Or Poppy, whose perfect-on-the-outside façade conceals more than her share of secrets?

Each of them has something to hide.

Each of them will do anything to keep secrets hidden.

And each of them just might kill to protect their own.

Limited plot imagination

Needed a better plot development it was tired, kind of formula writing at this point. I did enjoy it but could have done more

I enjoyed the twists and turns in this novel! The story was well-written and intriguing. The narration was very good as well. Definitely recommend!

Great Listen

Loved this book. The ending was a twist I wasn't expecting. The narrator was amazing her voice fit well wasn't like nails on a chalk board.

Ended before all of the stories were wrapped up 

I was shocked when the booked ended because we didn’t find out what happened to a lot of the characters! It was pretty interesting, but it’s incomplete in my opinion. 

ending twist

reader was good and believable. The story was interesting and although I think there was some
missing pieces, the storyline was goid and the end was surprising.

What did I Just Listen To

I love Brittany Pressley as a narrator. However because I couldn’t return this, I listened to it for white noise. I found it difficult to follow the story line which started out intriguing. However it soon became tedious. Not engaging at all. Especially with the introduction of so many characters making the story unnecessarily long. Also, ending is terrible.

Loved it!

A domestic thriller. Grabbed me from the beginning and held my interest all the way through. Rich, selfish and very entitled people sounds annoying, but makes for a very interesting story. Definitely recommend this book.

Delicious, Twisty, Absolutely Fantastic!

This was such a juicy, drama filled thriller, and I couldn't stop listening. Once you start, you'll want to clear your entire day. I definitely did not see how it was all going to come together. This was like Gossip Girl mixed with The Real Housewives. The scandals, mystery, and all the webs the characters weaved, made this one wild ride. It was fast paced and was told from multiple POVs, which I always love. I absolutely loved this book!
