The acclaimed author of The Nanny and What

She Knew

—hailed by stalwarts including Ruth Ware, Liane Moriarty, Tess Gerritsen, and Shari Lapena—returns with another serpentine

thriller that cleverly blends atmosphere, tarnished memories, mystery, and

twisty secrets from the past into a potent, intense read that will leave you

questioning everything you believe.

To tell you the truth . . . everybody lies.

Lucy

Harper’s talent for writing bestselling novels has given her fame,

fortune and millions of fans.  It’s also given her Dan, her needy, jealous

husband whose own writing career has gone precisely nowhere.

Now

Dan has vanished. But this isn’t the first time that someone has

disappeared from Lucy’s life. Three decades ago, her little brother Teddy

also went missing and was never found. Lucy, the only witness, helplessly

spun fantasy after fantasy about Teddy’s disappearance, to the detectives’

fury and her parents’ despair. That was the start of her ability to tell a

story—a talent she has profited from greatly. 

But

now Lucy’s a grown woman who can’t hide behind fiction any longer. The world is

watching, and her whole life is under intense scrutiny. A life full of

stories, some more believable than others. Could she have hurt Teddy?  Did

she kill Dan?  Finally, now, Lucy Harper’s going to tell the truth.

Cross

her heart.

And

hope to die.

"Spellbinding . . . Bold, suspenseful,

and impossible to put down. This one will stay with me for a long

time." — Samantha Downing, #1 internationally bestselling author
