Goodreads asked Megan Abbott:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Megan Abbott For my upcoming book, GIVE ME YOUR HAND, I was compelled by the notion of the burden that sharing a secret can be on the person hearing it. The notion that, when someone confesses a secret to someone else, then the person who hears the confession has to carry the weight of that darkness with them. It fascinates me! It's almost like, by confessing, the confessor feels better, but the recipient feels worse...and faces a moral quandary!
