About the Book

They say there are no secrets in a small town…

Criminal psychologist Audrey Harte is returning home after seven years. She’ll have to face the whispers and the rumors that have haunted her family since she left. Because when Audrey was thirteen, she and her best friend Maggie killed Maggie’s abusive father.

Her first night back in town ends in a fight with a drunken Maggie, with her old crush Jake to witness it all. Audrey can’t believe it can get worse.

Then Maggie turns up dead.

Now, Audrey has to find out who the murderer is—before everyone decides that she is to blame. And before the murderer can set their sights on her.

Reviews

“Deliciously twisted and genre-bending, Kate Kessler’s positively riveting, IT TAKES ONE, boasts a knockout concept and a thoroughly unique and exciting protagonist, a savvy criminal psychologist with murderous skeletons in her own closet.”

— Sara Blaedel, international bestselling author of THE FORGOTTEN GIRLS

“It Takes One is packed with complex characters and dysfunctional relationships which somehow thinly disguise strong feelings of loyalty and affection. It was a book that kept calling to me when I should have been doing something else. Hard to put down, compulsive reading.”

— Rachel Abbott, author of STRANGER CHILD

“Kate Kessler excels at creating an atmosphere of fear and suspense. I wouldn’t advise anyone to read IT TAKES ONE alone at night, in an empty house.”

— Kate Rhodes, author of the Alice Quentin series

“Kessler has created a kick-ass, heartfelt character in this lively, twisty thriller. Believe me – you’ll enjoy the ride.”

— Sandra Block, author of THE GIRL WITHOUT A NAME

“[Audrey’s] a likable heroine, and between her moxie and sense of humor, she’ll soon become a favorite of those who like their suspense less dark and bleak….Audrey is definitely a keeper.”

— KIRKUS reviews

“Tense, fast-paced….The action builds to compelling and unexpected conclusion.”

— PUBLISHER’S WEEKLY
