ONE GOOD LIE

Jane Isaac

Ruby can't help but worry for her fragile younger sister, Sophie, who is still wracked with guilt over their mother's death. Still, she's glad that Sophie's boyfriend, Ewan, is supporting her. He's been her rock, not only taking care of her, but her two little kids, too. So what if he doesn't like talking about his past?

When news of a woman's death spreads through their town like wildfire, Ruby doesn't want to suspect Ewan of foul play. But she knows that he was in the area of the murder at the time police say it happened. She knows because she was there too. That night, Ewan kissed her while walking her home - a fact that he desperately wants to hide.

Ruby thought that the kiss was just a stupid mistake, but soon she can't help wondering if the man living in her sister's home is really who he says he is. As she digs, she quickly discovers how little she knows: about what her sister is hiding; about the secrets she's also willing to keep; and about what really happened to their mother on the day that she died.

A gripping and unputdownable thriller that will keep you guessing into the early hours of the morning. Perfect for fans of Claire McGowan, Sue Watson, and Jackie Kabler.

Jane Isaac is author of three bestselling detective series: DCI Helen Lavery, DI Will Jackman (based in Stratford upon Avon), and DC Beth Chamberlain (a Family Liaison Officer). Her novels have been nominated as best mystery in the 'eFestival of Words Best of the Independent eBook awards' and selected as 'Thriller of the Month' by E-thriller.com.
