I think that it would be hard to find a family that didn't have a secret in it somewhere, and sometimes we know about them, sometimes we don't. Sometimes we have an inkling that there's something hidden, but I think that it touches everybody's life.

I've always been really interested in secrets - how people find ways of doing things without telling anyone else in order to keep themselves feeling safe in the world.

I guess I've always been attracted to secret societies and the mystery surrounding them.

Secrets are very intriguing - I always think that's an interesting theme.

I am curious about people. I want to know their secrets... because I am the last person to whom I would tell a secret; people tell me their secrets.

I just have mysteries in all my books, I think, whether it's a boy investigating or a girl. I have an enduring fascination with mysteries of all kinds.

'Family Secrets' is thought provoking, well written, and remorselessly intelligent.

There are secrets at the heart of every story; there is something that must be uncovered or discovered, both by the reader and by the characters.

I grew up in a family of secrets; there was a lot of pathology in the family.
