No body, No crime

by Ella Louise

In the small, tight-knit town of Golden Creek, secrets don't stay buried for long. Beneath its charming facade lies a darkness that whispers through the streets, where everyone knows each other’s business—but not everyone tells the truth.

Inspired by Taylor Swift's haunting song No Body, No Crime, this gripping thriller unravels the chilling mystery of a young woman’s disappearance and the sinister forces at play.

Este had always trusted her instincts, but when she begins to suspect her husband of infidelity, she uncovers far more than she ever expected. As she pieces together the unsettling truth, whispers of betrayal turn into deadly warnings, and the line between love and deception begins to blur. When Este vanishes without a trace, those closest to her are left questioning everything they thought they knew.

As the investigation unfolds, Golden Creek’s dark underbelly is exposed, revealing a tangled web of lies, secrets, and revenge. In a town where loyalty can be as dangerous as deceit, justice is not always served by the law—and sometimes, the only way to uncover the truth is to take matters into your own hands.

Perfect for fans of suspenseful thrillers, No Body, No Crime will keep you on the edge of your seat until the very last page.

About the author

Hi! I'm Ella Louise and I'm a teen author/writer who explores the emotional complexities of love, loss, and often the unseen struggles that shape our lives through my books. With the passion for creating rich, character-driven stories, I dive into themes of morality, choice and resilience in a world full of grey areas. My work is often a mix of fantasy, romance, mystery, and thriller where the characters' inner worlds play as much of a role as the plot itself.

This may sound like a bunch of gibberish to about anyone but it's true, I dive deeply into emotions.

I believe that stories have the power to not only entertain, but to also challenge the way we view the world around us. I believe that books can be used as an escape and I truly hope to write something that the readers can get lost in.

​I'm currently working on my next project and I look forward to sharing more stories with readers everywhere.

LITERALLY A MASTERPIECE

The different perspectives were so fun and interesting, letting me get a full grasp around what's happening. I absolutely NEED the 2nd Buried Secrets book, Ella, you're AMAZING

The book is great! I am a big fan of taylor swift and mystery novels so this is exactly the type of book for me. The way it's written is very good and I enjoyed reading although I don't usually like multiple POV books I persisted with this one and it was so worth it!

3.88/5 really good!!! not my kind of book and i kind of expected more of a mystery but the plot is also really good and i like the strong fmc. As a taylor swift fan, i loved when the words to her song were brought up!!! it was an easy and quick read!

For all the T Swizzle lovers, you’re going to devour this book! Not my kind of genre, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It showcases mental struggles throughout all of the characters and leaves on a BIG ASS CLIFFHANGER.

This is my second read of this great novel. And let me just say, the writing is beautiful, it’s crafted soooo beautifully! I have loved the song: No Body, No Crime, for quite some time and I’ve always wanted it to be turned into a book or a movie. And when I found Ella on my FYP and saw her promoting her upcoming novel that was about the Taylor swift song, I drove write in. I finished it right on release day, I enjoyed it so much I had to read it again.
I actually appreciate her sooo much for writing this, and she captured everything in the song I wanted in the movie or novel I dreamed about before this was out.
It was crafted beautifully and was displayed in the best way possible.
thank you, Ella Louise, for a novel I’ve read and enjoyed!

One of the best books I’ve ever read. Ella you’ve outdone yourself. I genuinely love you as a person and a writer. Seeing the immense amount of TikTok’s about this book and you sending me the arc reader version THANKYOU. I’m glad I get to read this for myself to truly see a story I was hoping for come to life. Love you!!! And I can’t wait for others to read and love this as much as I did!!
