Listen for the Lie: A Novel [J0292]

2024 HCDJ in nice clean condition. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all and, if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. But after Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy's blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. It's been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can't remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life. But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast Listen for the Lie and its too-good looking host, Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy's murder for the show's second season. Lucy is forced to return to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend's murder, even if she is the one who did it. The truth is out there, if we just listen.

From recent Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Loved this book! Engaging, dark humor, entertaining, and definitely hooks you to find out what happens next would definitely recommend this book to anyone who would like to read a (can't put this down) thriller book!"; "I really enjoyed Lucy, the main character! Sarcastic and funny! She and her grandma were hilarious! The story of a small town. Lots of secrets. Cover ups."; "The plot was interesting with the podcast style. I enjoyed piecing everything together. However, I didn't appreciate how unnecessarily vulgar the language was."
