    About this audiobook

    Daniel is leaving behind his job as a probation counsellor to spend more time with his wife. However, nothing is that simple. Daniel finds a message at work - 'admit what you've done or you will bleed for it,' he is relieved that it's not addressed to him. Then he learns that the intended victim is already dead. Then a note is addressed to Daniel himself. He must discover who wants him dead… Or become the next victim…

    • 4/5
      First off, I loved this book. I couldn't put it down. This is about Daniel who grew up in a VERY wealthy family and he refuses to play along so his Mom, excuse me, Mother cuts him out of the will. He's happily married to Cristina who is from Mexico and Daniel's Mom never gets her name correct, on purpose. Daniel is a group counselor for people who have just gotten out of jail and some of them are pretty hardened criminals. He starts getting envelopes in his work mailbox for other people and those people start showing up dead. Everything starts to escalate as Daniel gets pulled further and further into the investigation. Gregg does a great job of sucking the reader into the story. You get to know the criminals through group therapy and why they are the way they are. You also get to know little bits and pieces of Daniels' Mother, Cristina and Daniel along. This book keeps you guessing on who is the killer, why they are killing, who are the targets and are they connected in any way. It keeps you guessing up to the very end. I will definitely read more of Gregg's books. If you like suspense, murder mysteries, pick up this book, you won't be disappointed at all.

      Daniel Brasher is was born with a silver spoon, comes from the wealthiest San Francisco family. He forsakes his family fortune to do counseling of convicts. When he belatedly checks his mail, he finds threats addressed to others. One of the threats is past due and the chase is on. Reading the twists and turns of the mystery is like riding a roller coaster. To enhance the experience, the characters have such depth that the reader can not help but get personally involved with them. Added to the great mystery, the terrific characters and the engrossing counseling sessions is an undercurrent of a troubling philosophical question - what would you do to save a loved one?

      It wasn't my favorite Gregg Hurwitz book but it was a good story with equal parts of thriller and mystery.
    • 4/5
      A solid thriller, but one packed with a bit too much unnecessary details and one too many trial endings... in other words, this novel could have been edited down by about 50 pages or so! Set in San Francisco and full of lots of insider info and tidbits about the city, the story focuses on the son of one of the wealthiest SF families and the life he lives with his cancer-survivor wife... and his struggles to fight against his upbringing and wealth... until a killer appears on the scene. Enjoyable read, decent characters, but just a bit too many useless details that dragged out the story and made the book too long.
    • 4/5
      I love suspense novels - especially those that throw an 'everyday' person into extraordinary circumstances.Gregg Hurwitz writes this genre - and does it very well. His latest book is Tell No Lies. Daniel Brasher comes from money, but decided to make his own way in life and make a difference in other's lives. Daniel works as a counsellor for a group of paroled violent offenders. While checking his oft neglected staff mailbox one night, he comes across a unsigned departmental envelope. The missive inside is chilling... "Admit what youv don, or you will bleed for it. you hav til november 15 at midnite. jack holley." The date has passed, and when Daniel and his wife check the paper - they find the news story detailing the murder of Jack Holley. Daniel contacts the police, but more letters - and more deadlines - keep showing up in his mailbox. Could it be one of the ex-cons in his group? Why is Daniel receiving these letters? Hurwitz has populated Tell No Lies with lots of suspects to choose from. He plants red herrings and provides enough twists and turns that I really had no idea 'whodunit' until the last few chapters. You may have to suspend disbelief on a few plot points, but Hurwitz has written a great piece of escapist reading. Tell No Lies is all about the page turning action (which is exactly what I wanted). Daniel is somewhat fleshed out, but don't expect great characterization. His mother and some of the cons are a bit cliched, but serve their purpose. The counselling sessions with the parolees were well written and actually provided some food for thought. There are some other social commentary bits scattered throughout the book. Recommended for suspense and thriller readers. Fans of Harlan Coben and Linwood Barclay would enjoy Gregg Hurwitz.
    • 3/5
      A real page turner, with some minor flaws typical of an author who has written many books. He has a recipe for his story telling, and an agenda, the main characters are, beautiful, rich and somewhat unbelievable.
    • 4/5
      After reading The Survivor last month, rating it 5 stars and putting it on my Top Ten Best Books of 2013 list, I had enormous expectations for this book from Mr. Hurwitz. On the whole, it lived up to them but didn't quite grab me by the throat, so to speak, as The Survivor did. However, it seems the author is on a roll and hopefully many more exciting suspense books are coming in the future from him. I did read They're Watching about a year ago, and remembered it as being good but not being blown away by it, so when reading The Survivor I didn't have the expectations I had reading this one. There is nothing wrong with the author's plot, not his writing style, here. It was just a case of not connecting on a deep level with the main character, Daniel, and his wife Cristina. But the unique storyline shows once again how creative Gregg Hurwitz can be.

      The setting is the gritty underbelly of San Francisco, showcasing crime, poverty and the us vs. them of the wealthy who are perched on the hills in their elegant homes against a backdrop of minorities and illegal immigrants living in squalor. The author was born there, so I imagine he knows of what he speaks, but I prefer to think of San Francisco as a great place to live in or visit. His rendition of the city is depressing, and the subplot concerning Daniel's wealthy roots vs. Cristina's poor upbringing didn't add to the suspenseful mix. All in all though, I thoroughly enjoyed this book, kept the pages turning fast and furious and was curious about the outcome. For me, a worthwhile and intense read, but not my favorite from the author. Still, I recommend it and give it a solid 4 stars.

      Daniel Brasher comes from a wealthy family in San Francisco. He decides he wants to give back to the community so quits his job as a money manager and gets a job as a counselor of ex-cons in an inner city facility.One day he opens his mail and finds something placed in his box by mistake. The note says that sender knows that the recipient has done and the recipient must do what the note says or they will bleed.Daniel wasn't sure what to make of this but later, he learns that the person it was meant for died brutally.This happens to two other people and then Daniel gets a letter about the same topic.The story is timely and it seems as if events could happen to anyone.Hurwitz describes his characters well and it is as if we are sitting in the counseling room with Daniel's group.Very enjoyable but somewhat disturbing.
