When - after a heated argument-Maddy and Ella get into a tragic accident that leaves her sister dead, Ella wakes up in the hospital surrounded by loved ones who believe she is Maddy. Feeling responsible for Maddy's death and everyone's grief, Ella makes a split-second decision to pretend to be Maddy. Soon, Ella realises that Maddy's life was full of secrets. Caught in a web of lies, Ella is faced with two options-confess her deception or live her sister's life.

Industry Reviews
"Leaver's brilliant novel is the high school version of What Happened to Janie? The compelling premise will attract readers and the strong characterization will keep them enthralled." --VOYA, starred review
"A fatal accident leaves one twin sister dead and the other trying to figure out her identity . . . For lovers of melodrama." --Kirkus Reviews
"Watching Ella grapple with questions about life, death, and love makes for rewarding reading." --Publishers Weekly
"The love and loss of a twin sister leads to a powerfully complex and heart-wrenching journey of self-discovery. The depth and complexity of Ella grows on each page, and I soon found myself immersed in her personal struggle. She is so fully developed that her seemingly unbelievable choice is not only believable, but completely understandable." --Scott Blagden, author of Dear Life, You Suck
"Trisha Leaver crafts a powerful and unputdownable novel that will keep you up long after you read the last page. Full of twists and turns and FEELS, this book questions how far a person will go for her family . . . even if it means losing herself." --Lynne Matson, author of Nil
"Haunting and beautiful, The Secrets We Keep, is a gripping, evocative examination of siblings' complex relationships. It compels us to question what we know, or think we know, about our loved ones and--most of all--ourselves." --Karen Rock, author of the Camp Boyfriend series
