Book excerpt: A #1 Wall Street Journal, Amazon Charts, USA Today, and Washington Post bestseller. #1 New York Times bestselling author Gregg Olsen's shocking and empowering true-crime story of three sisters determined to survive their mother's house of horrors. After more than a decade, when sisters Nikki, Sami, and Tori Knotek hear the word mom, it claws like an eagle's talons, triggering memories that have been their secret since childhood. Until now. For years, behind the closed doors of their farmhouse in Raymond, Washington, their sadistic mother, Shelly, subjected her girls to unimaginable abuse, degradation, torture, and psychic terrors. Through it all, Nikki, Sami, and Tori developed a defiant bond that made them far less vulnerable than Shelly imagined. Even as others were drawn into their mother's dark and perverse web, the sisters found the strength and courage to escape an escalating nightmare that culminated in multiple murders. Harrowing and heartrending, If You Tell is a survivor's story of absolute evil--and the freedom and justice that Nikki, Sami, and Tori risked their lives to fight for. Sisters forever, victims no more, they found a light in the darkness that made them the resilient women they are today--loving, loved, and moving on.

Download or read book Summary of If You Tell by Gregg Olsen written by Quill Quill Reads. This book was released on 2020-03-28. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a detailed summary of the true crime book If You Tell: A True Story of Murder, Family Secrets, and the Unbreakable Bonds of Sisterhood by Gregg Olson. Gregg Olson divides his book into parts, which divide the life of Shelly Knotek by the events that happened during different times in her life. At its core, If You Tell is the chilling true story of how three Knotek sisters, as well as their cousin-turned-brother Shane, dealt and lived with the abusive Shelly, and Dave, the passive husband who carried out his wife's commands. Throughout their young lives, the sisters and Shane faced severe physical, mental, and emotional abuse at the hands of their mother. After the abuse took place, Shelly would become a loving mother, and claim that she was helping her children. A tactic of Shelly's was to act like a loving, caring mother so that her children would put up with the abuse in order to "earn" some happy moments with Shelly. If You Tell is the retelling of grotesque events, and also delves into Shelly's childhood, showing that Shelly was always an abusive, vile person, without any remorse or responsibility for her actions. Finally, If You Tell: A True Story of Murder, Family Secrets, and the Unbreakable Bond of Sisterhood shows how Shelly Knotek faced justice for the crimes she committed. In a happy ending, Olsen shows how the abuse they faced throughout their lives brought the sisters closer and strengthened their bond. Gregg Olson recounts the events in detail, never shying away from the bad or grotesque actions of Shelly Knotek. That is what makes it all the more satisfying when Shelly finally has to face justice at the end. The reader is left with a sense of justice, and with empathy for the sisters.

Book excerpt: No matter what you see, no matter what you've heard, assume nothing. Adam and Sophie Warner and their three-year-old daughter are vacationing in Washington State's Hood Canal for Memorial Day weekend. It's the perfect getaway to unplug--and to calm an uneasy marriage. But on Adam's first day out on the water, he sees Sophie abducted by a stranger. A hundred yards from shore, Adam can't save her. And Sophie disappears. In a nearby cabin is another couple, Kristen and Connor Moss. Unfortunately, beyond what they've heard in the news, they're in the dark when it comes to Sophie's disappearance. For Adam, at least there's comfort in knowing that Mason County detective Lee Husemann is an old friend of his. She'll do everything she can to help. She must. But as Adam's paranoia about his missing wife escalates, Lee puts together the pieces of a puzzle. The lives of the two couples are converging in unpredictable ways, and the picture is unsettling. Lee suspects that not everyone is telling the truth about what they know--or they have yet to reveal all the lies they've hidden from the strangers they married.
