The Lies We Tell

The twist-filled, addictive new domestic thriller from the Sunday Times bestselling author of I MADE A MISTAKE




You did what any mother would do . . . and now someone else's son is dead

Sarah always thought of herself and her husband, Tom, as good people. But that was before their son Freddy came home saying he'd done something terrible. Begging them not to tell the police.

Soon Sarah and Tom must find out just how far they'll push themselves, and their marriage, to protect their only child...

As the lies build up and Sarah is presented with the perfect opportunity to get Freddy off the hook, she is faced with a terrible decision: will she save him, but in the process, damn herself?
