Happy Book Birthday to When You Tell by Steena Holmes

October 6, 2026

Happy book birthday to the new suspense novel by New York Times bestseller Steena Holmes. Robyn Harding calls When You Tell “a riveting page-turner about the dark side of celebrity, female friendship, and the lengths people will go to protect the ones they love.”

Old friends. New lies. Deadly consequences.

Bree Wagner has spent her life behind the scenes—as a ghostwriter, an aunt, and a woman scarred by tragedy. When her former best friend Miranda, now the wildly popular lifestyle influencer Randi F. Alexander, begs for help with her next book, Bree reluctantly agrees. It’s a chance to reconnect after eighteen years of silence following a devastating accident in Amsterdam.

But just as Bree steps back into Randi’s world, a viral misstep sends the influencer’s career into a tailspin. While Bree tries to steer clear of the spotlight and the toxic whirlwind of cancel culture, old secrets begin to surface—ones that make her question everything she thought she knew about Miranda and their shared past.

As tensions rise and lines blur, Bree is forced to make an impossible choice—stay hidden, or risk exposing everything to protect her orphaned nephew.

When You Tell is a gripping psychological suspense about friendship, fame, and fierce love.

Out now.
