In this psychological thriller debut, a privileged woman's perfect life begins to unravel when an estranged childhood friend reappears in her life. The last time Katy saw Jude was on a school trip, when Jude was attacked by a stranger and Katy ran away. Twenty-five years later, Jude is back, and her reappearance coincides with a series of unsettling incidents: a stranger appears in the downstairs flat; Katy's house is vandalized; her mother is mugged and her home ransacked. And Jude seems to know an uncomfortable amount about Katy's current life . . . Forced to revisit the same rocky waters of friendship and power they inhabited when they were fifteen, Jude and Katy realize that when it comes to memory, truth, and family-nothing and no one are what they seem. Praise for The Lies We Tell "The Lies We Tell has a sense of tension and skewed reality from page one. Delightfully creepy and skillfully plotted. . . . It's a can't-wait-to-get-back-to-it book and I thoroughly enjoyed it." -Hilary Boyd, author of Thursdays in the Park"An intriguing story full of slow-burning suspense." -Sophie McKenzie, author of Close My Eyes and Here We Lie
