Then She Lied - by Alice Leigh (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Everyone in that part of Long Island remembers the events of twenty years ago. A young woman, soaked in blood and unable to recall even her name, walked into the local police station. No clue was ever found about where she came from or who she was.

Now, that woman is known as Jane and she still doesn't know her true identity. Yet when she sees the pond being dredged a flurry of memories race to the surface, too. She knows something about the person in the water.

At first, Jane is relieved to be regaining a part of herself. But as she unravels her tangled recollections, it becomes clear that knowing the truth isn't going to set her free. There are people who will stop at nothing to keep her quiet.

But Jane's lived in the dark too long. She's going to speak out - even if it kills her.

There are things she will come to wish she never knew.

A compulsive tale of small-town secrets from a brilliant new voice in the mystery genre.
