Our new home was meant to be a chance for us to start again, to make new friends and forget thepast. And as I look around the barbeque we’ve thrown for our neighbours, I dare to dream that things will be all right. I watch my husband joking as he flips burgers and my daughter turning cartwheels on our sun-bleached lawn. And then my gaze falls on my son Jacob, and his new girlfriend Rose, in her light blue jeans and her green crop top. There is a worried expression clouding her beautiful eyes…
The next day I get a call from Rose’s mother that chills me to the bone. Rose never returned after our party.
I wake my still-sleeping son, who walked Rose home the night before, and beg him for answers. Jacob promises he saw Rose to her front door, and I know he would never lie.
But when the police find Rose’s house keys hidden in our garden and a witness claims to have seen them arguing in the street, everyone insists I can’t believe what Jacob is telling me.
I will do anything to protect my boy. But I need to find a way to make the questions stop. Because there’s something about our family that nobody can ever know. And as the search for Rose closes in, how can I keep him safe and keep our secrets hidden?
A gripping and jaw-dropping page-turner with twists to die for. If you love Lisa Jewell, K.L. Slater and Jackie Kabler, you’ll love The Lie.

First, I want to thank Kathryn Croft, Bookouture and NetGalley for providing me with this book so I can bring you this review.
WOW!!! WOW!! WOW!!! Kathryn Croft’s The Lie will have you holding your kids a little tighter! Every parent’s worst nightmare becomes reality in this fast paced read! It is definitely a must add to your summer TBR list!
Kathryn grabbed my attention straight away in the first paragraph of the book! For me this was a one sitting read! I just could not take my eyes off my Kindle until I knew how things were going to end!!
This is one read where I thought I figured it out but OMG I was so off base! Kathryn’s twists and turns totally blew my mind and left me speechless! My heart ached for so many of the characters.
After reading The Lie from Kathryn Croft I am very interested in checking out more of her titles!
