Publisher's Summary
When Jesse Graham almost runs over a "body" in the road one night, she is plunged into a labyrinth of secrets, lies, and murder. All Jesse wants is a simple life teaching at St. Bart's and a chance at love with Joe Riley. She realizes that plan has been thwarted when puzzling occurrences at St. Bartholomew Academy for Girls get increasingly dangerous. The danger doesn't just spring from the ghost who haunts the grounds of St. Bart's, but from a sinister presence that is not ghostly at all. As she digs into the mystery, threats on her life and the life of her student escalate.
Which danger threatens her life the most? The ghost haunting her student or the secrets buried in the school?

This is my fist book by Elizabeth Meyette. Buried Secrets is the 2nd book in the Cavanaugh House Series and although I did not read/listen to the 1st book The Cavanaugh House iwas able to follow along. This is a stand alone. It does reference some people, places, and things in book 1 it is a whole new story. I enjoyed this book a lot.
Elizabeth Meyette to me has done a great job of bringing a haunting, some romance, a mystery, and a huge does of suspense to this book, and series. At times I was wanting to fast forward just to see what the outcome was of certain parts of the book. The book is not filled with an overdose of random details or descriptions that mean nothing to the story, I personally really like that. I was on the edge of my seat several times in this book. There is a little violence, some mild cursing (no F Bombs), and no sex in the book.
Amy McFadden narrates the audiobook and I really enjoyed listening to her. She has lots of feeling and emotion in her rendition. She really kept my interest.
In the book Jesse Graham is the new English teach at St. Bartholomew Academy for Girls. This is a Catholic boarding school that is owned by Jesse's estranged family. It is also haunted by a Weeping Indian woman who is looking for her child. But that is not all there is another threat of danger that is putting the lives of the girls, the Nuns, and Jesse as well in danger.Also the romance between Jesse and Joe from book one continues.
I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Audiobookworm Promotions on behalf of various authors, narrators, and publishers. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.
Jess the Audiobookworm's top 10 Recommended Audiobook Activities
- Relaxing. This isn't so much an activity as a lack of an activity, but it allows for total audio immersion.
- Roadtripping. I love a great road trip playlist, but who says it has to be all about the music? Set cruise control and hit play!
- Exercising. Nothing takes my mind off of the pain of an intense workout like an even more intense story. A high-paced action thriller will still have your heart racing long after the cardio ends.
- Beaching. Audiobook listening is the ultimate summer fun. We've been bringing books to the pool and beach with us for decades, why not upgrade? Listening frees up your hands and you won't have to worry about a book blocking your sun or some kid splashing your pages.
- Working. Why count the hours in your work day when you could be counting the hours you've knocked off of your current audiobook? Turn 8 hour work days into 8 hour listening sessions. Just check with the boss first!
- Running errands. I always have an audiobook loaded up on my phone when heading out to run errands, especially if doctor visits are involved. I actually look forward to hanging out in waiting rooms now. I've also been known to accidentally LOL while listening in such situations… #awkward
- Coloring. Coloring is the perfect mindless activity to pair with audiobook listening. It's super relaxing and the combo keeps both your mind and hands occupied.
- Sleeping. I don't personally suffer from insomnia, but I've heard that audio listening has helped those who do. Listening to a great audiobook is the perfect way to drift peacefully off to sleep. Just remember to set a sleep timer on the book before settling in!
- Reading. Studies have shown that maximum comprehension is obtained through listening and reading simultaneously. This should end of the book versus audiobook debate once and for all. They’re both winners!
- Flying. Fear over flying? Pop an audio into your ears and lie back. I recommend choosing something relaxing like a nice Nicholas Sparks-esque romance. There's no need to heighten your anxiety with an adrenaline pumping Thriller.
