Eight years ago, Margot Beck was murdered by a serial killer. Though the killer has confessed to eight of these murders, he has always denied to be responsible for Margot’s death. However, the specific mutilations found on her body seem to remove all doubts over his guilt. Today, Alexandre Beck, her husband, is still deeply psychologically injured by the loss of Margot. He temporarily escapes his memories during the day by immersing himself completely in his work as a pediatrician. Outside of that, only the friendship he has formed with Hélène Perkins saves him from total isolation from the rest of the world. But when two new bodies are uncovered near where Margot’s body was discovered, Margot’s case is reopened. At the same time, Alexandre receives a strange e-mail with a link to a video-surveillance web-cam and a time at which to watch it.

Tell No One’s plot thickens in about five ways at once, but they’re all connected. The issue of how is a riddle that does more than tease –gives you an itch you won’t want to stop scratching.
Beautifully written and acted, Tell No One is a labyrinth in which to get deliriously lost.
Wall Street Journal Joe Morgenstern
Thrillers aren’t always so thrilling, but Tell No One is — and absorbing, sometimes perplexing and often stirring as well.
Author Coben, who says he is a fan of “stories that move you, that grab hold of your heart and do not let it go,” has gotten a film that does exactly that.

Indeed, you could argue that Tell No One is a variant on one of Hitchcock’s favorite themes: the running man whose story no one (except us in the audience) believes. These fictions, of course, depend for their success on the French respect for rationalism (and their horror when reason is torn asunder by criminal irrationality).
Rolling Stone Peter Travers
Washington Post Ann Hornaday
A crafty, swift, subtly stylish thriller.
