All the Lies We Told

I haven’t seen my brother for 20 years. Not since he killed the man I loved. And now he’s back.

I have imagined this scene a million times. But nothing could prepare me for what he actually says:

“I didn’t do it.”

He must be lying. Because, who pleads guilty to a murder they didn’t commit?

He insists that with my help he can prove his innocence. But no one else will ever believe it. Everyone in our small town wants him gone. They’re all scared of him. And up here, with nothing but the mountains and forests surrounding us, I’m scared of him, too.

And then, I see something in his blue eyes. As blue as the sky reflected in the lake on that last morning before my world fell apart: before the fire, the police, and the red blood on the ferns. That look reminds me of everything we used to be, and I realize I need to know the truth.

No matter what it costs me...

A dark, emotional story of a family shattered by a terrible crime that will make you wonder how well we truly know the ones we love. Fans of Claire McGowan and Teresa Driscoll will be totally gripped.
