HE WAS THE ONLY EYEWITNESS.Tim Wallace’s wife was killed in a boating accident several months ago—and one New Jersey cop is sure he did it. He didn’t. But even if the police eventually clear his name, he’ll never get over this terrible tragedy…BUT THE TRUTH IS STILL OUT THERE…It’s New Year’s Eve. Tim’s buddies convince him to go out for the first time since his wife’s death. They’re at a local pub when, just before midnight, a drunken stranger approaches Tim—and asks him a compelling question. “CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET?” Soon the man confesses to a months-old murder—even offering as proof the location of the woman’s body. “Now it’s your problem,” he says to Tim before walking away. When the man turns out to have been telling the truth, Tim’s life goes from bad to worse as he is put under the microscope again by the cops—and this time they’re not giving up. But neither is Tim: He is the only one who can figure out what’s really going on—and who murdered his wife…DON’T TELL A SOUL“Rosenfelt has earned his crime-novelist pedigree.”—Entertainment Weekly Publishers WeeklyNear the start of this stellar stand-alone from Rosenfelt (Play Dead), ordinary guy Timothy Wallace, still grieving for his wife, Maggie, who was blown to bits in a boating explosion on Long Island Sound a few months earlier, hears a gruesome secret from a fellow bar patron on New Year's Eve.
