Book Synopsis
Maxy Awards 2025 Winner: Thriller
The thing about the truth is, sometimes, it's all in the eyes.
On his drive home from work, Mark hears a familiar voice on the Doctor Lisa radio show-a popular therapist hotline. It's not just a familiar voice; it's her voice. His wife Rachel's voice.
The caller, who goes by Mindy from Indy, has a secret. A secret so explosive it'll destroy her life if it comes out-but she hangs up before revealing it. Later, Rachel denies ever having heard of the Doctor Lisa Show, or Mindy from Indy.
But Mark knows his wife, and he knows her voice. And he doesn't understand why she's lying to him, or what about.
As Mark searches for the truth behind the mysterious caller's identity, he discovers it's family secrets that often cut the deepest. Somebody with a deep obsession is playing dangerous mind games-threatening not only his trust in Rachel, but also the safety of their two daughters-and might be willing to go further than he could ever imagine.
When he looks closely, he learns the eyes really do tell all. That is, unless he can't trust what his eyes are trying to tell him.
