An entire family dies in a terrible house fire, their
bodies burned beyond recognition. A business man with
financial problems commits suicide after killing his
family, his wife's face unrecognizable. Another family is
murdered during a burglary of their home, the wife's face
again disfigured. These tragic events occur in different
places, but all have details in common. Each man had
recently remarried after his first wife had committed
suicide, and the new wives faces have been mutilated. Are
these families personally connected in some way? Or is
there another bizarre reason why this is happening?
When Stephanie Coburn's sister took her own life, Stephanie
was devastated and confused. She knew her sister was happy
and would never leave her family in that way. Stephanie is
further shocked when her brother-in-law, his new wife and
the children are brutally killed in what looks like a home
invasion. As an airline pilot, Stephanie is gone a lot.
She'd never met the new woman in his life and had only seen
a blurry side-profile photo of her, so cannot positively
identify the dead woman with the mutilated face.
Knowing that something is not right about the deaths of her
sister and her family, Stephanie tries to get the police to
investigate. However, without any kind of proof, they can't
pursue it, even when Stephanie finds other similar cases of
deaths. Discovering that one of these other victims has a
surviving teenage son, Stephanie approaches him with her
unusual theory. Though hard to convince at first, he soon
becomes her ally and starts looking into his family's past
and how it might tie in with the other families. What these
two intrepid sleuths eventually uncover is almost beyond
belief and puts both of their lives in danger, as well.
In TELL ME YOU'RE SORRY, Kevin O'Brien explores the
darkness of a malevolent mind as the scare factor is
elevated to the limit. With expert consideration to detail
and precise characterization, O'Brien grabs our attention
and keeps us rapidly turning pages to find out what comes
next. TELL ME YOU'RE SORRY is thrilling suspense at its
very best, and I'm looking for more books to read by master
storyteller Kevin O'Brien.
A family is wiped out after a burglary gone wrong. An
executive accused of embezzling kills himself and his loved
ones. A house fire claims the lives of all its inhabitants.
Separate incidents with two common threads — a first wife
who took her own life, and a secret the victims took to
their graves.
Stephanie Coburn has barely recovered from her sister's
mysterious suicide before her brother-in-law and his new
wife are murdered, her face disfigured beyond recognition.
Stephanie never met the bride, has never even seen a clear
photograph. But she knew her sister, and she knows
something is desperately wrong.
The police won't listen. Her only ally is another victim's
son. Step-by-step, they're uncovering a trail of brutal
vengeance and a killer who will never relent — and whose
forgiveness can only be earned in death.
