About this listen

Best-selling and award-winning author Lisa Scottoline reaches new heights with this riveting novel about how a single decision can undo a family, how our past can derail our present, and how not guilty doesn't always mean innocent.

Allie Garvey is heading home to the funeral of a childhood friend. Allie is not only grief-stricken, she's full of dread. Because going home means seeing the other two people with whom she shares an unbearable secret.

Twenty years earlier, a horrific incident shattered the lives of five teenagers, including Allie. Drinking and partying in the woods, they played a dangerous prank that went tragically wrong, turning deadly. The teenagers kept what happened a secret, believing that getting caught would be the worst thing that could happen. But time has taught Allie otherwise. Not getting caught was far worse.

Allie has been haunted for two decades by what she and the others did, and by the fact that she never told a soul. The dark secret has eaten away at her, distancing her from everyone she loves, including her husband. Because she wasn't punished by the law, Allie has punished herself, and it's a life sentence.

Now, Allie stands on the precipice of losing everything. She's ready for a reckoning, determined to learn how the prank went so horribly wrong. She digs to unearth the truth, but reaches a shocking conclusion that she never saw coming - and neither will the listener.

A deeply emotional examination of family, marriage, and the true nature of justice, Someone Knows is Lisa Scottoline's most powerful novel to date. Startling, addictive, and with an ending that's impossible to forget, this is a tour de force by a beloved author at the top of her game.

Critic reviews

“Pure gold...a tour de force, a stunner of a thriller in which ‘knowing’ becomes a wholly subjective term.” (Providence Journal)

“[A] heartfelt tale that touches on family, marriage, justice, and how emotional wounds drive the choices people make. Scottoline’s fans will be well satisfied.” (Publishers Weekly)

“Scottoline fills the pages with twists and turns and plenty of skeletons in family closets...[fans] will race to the end.” (Booklist)

Pretty good...not the greatest

I loved the different characters and their individual stories, but the narrators were a little too exaggerated sometimes. I'd recommend it because it is a good book and i loved how intertwined the different characters were. The ending was a good conclusion, but I find it a little hard to believe that so many of the events the female character supposedly forgot could realistically be so easily forgotten.

Little Far Fetched

I enjoy Scottoline's writing. One of my favorites is Daddy's Girls. She usually has twists right up until the end. This twist though, I thought was a bit much. For sake of not ruining it for those that haven't read it, the deaths in her had me scratching my head. Did you really think you'd get away with that? The readers performance was well done.

Someone knows but you don’t find out until...

Not just a murder mystery but a well orchestrated series of characters whose lives have been profoundly changed over a 20 year period by a single event.
I do wish that Scottoline would have developed Sasha’s and Julian’s characters a bit more. (I don’t want to give away the plot).
Not exactly a nail biter but certainly kept my interest.

Wow what a great book!

So Brittany Pressley is one of my very favorite narrators and she did an amazing job once again with this book. One of Lisa Scottoline best for sure! This was an outstanding book! Definitely worth the money or the credit!

Keep reading

The first part had me almost putting it down, just a bunch of teenagers telling their distorted idea of life and their single goal of finding someone to connect to. Twenty years later is more intense and whatever you do read to the end. Big surprises!

Always a big favorite of Scottoline!

I really loved the book, way it was written, narrated....ending felt rushed and kind of thrown together.

First Scottoline book- I'd try another..

This was pretty good. Not fantastic, but not too bad either. The twist at the end was unexpected and I appreciate that. I didn't like the male narrator's female voice. He basically did every female- mom, sister, fifteen year old, fifty five year old, the same way...sort of high and whiny. But it wasn't too distracting.
