Behind Every Lie by Christina McDonald
5.0
“I’m not entirely certain one can ever become unbroken, but I do know we can be strong and brave and broken and whole all the same time. It’s called being human.”
Eva is broken when she wakes up in the hospital after being struck by lightning and learns her mother has been murdered. Eva was found down the street from her mother’s house, but she can’t remember anything about that night. The police are suspicious of Eva, and she sets out to prove her innocence. She soon learns that her mother was full of secrets, and someone doesn’t want her to know the truth. And Eva has secrets of her own.
The novel alternates the first-person narrative between Eva’s search for the truth and her mother’s strange past. There were lots of twists and turns that kept me hooked in the story. Enjoyed this one!
