Beautiful, fifty-eight-year old Fenny Dexter lives a quiet life on the idyllic coast of California, near Big Sur.  She adores her twenty-something granddaughters, JC and Vivi, having raised them since they were children. Vivi is an ER doctor and JC is finding her way as an artist. One night, a blood-covered man knocks on Fenny's door, claiming to have had a car accident.   He says he is headed to San Francisco to help the police solve the murder of his fiancé. Fenny knows he needs a doctor but the storm prevents him from leaving. Despite the strange circumstances there is an immediate attraction between them. After an intense night with Fenny, the stranger is gone the next morning. Fenny is further disturbed when Vivi phones to tell her that a woman was brought to her ER with her throat slashed.  The woman's life hangs in the balance, clearly the next victim of a serial killer who leaves notes saying "Please Don't Tell" taped to womens' mouths. Vivi also tells her that Fenny's mysterious stranger came to have his wounds stitched, asking for Vivi specifically.  Who is this man, really? What does he want with Fenny and her girls?  And will they live long enough to uncover the truth?  Told with Elizabeth Adler's knack for terrific female characters and breathtaking twists, Please Don't Tell will keep you guessing, right up to the end.
