Listen for the Lie
(eAudiobook)

What would you do if you thought you murdered your best friend? And if everyone else thinks so too? What if the truth doesn't matter? A true crime podcast has ruined Lucy Chase's life. Well, ruined her life for the second time. Her life came crashing down the first time the night her best friend Savvy was murdered. A murder her whole Texas hometown believes Lucy committed after she was found wandering the streets, covered in her friend's blood the morning after a wedding that went terribly wrong. A night Lucy can't remember a minute of-some say conveniently can't remember. But the whole town talks and lies have a way of sounding better than the truth. Lucy and Savvy were golden girls in Plumpton, Texas. Pretty, smart, and enviable. Definitely enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home to start her perfect life with. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. And now those rumors are getting national attention as the hit true crime podcast "Listen for the Lie," and its host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy's murder for the show's second season. As the town begins to tell versions of what happened and who Lucy is to a nationwide, true crime obsessed audience, at the bequest of her grandmother, Lucy returns to the place she vowed never to set foot in again to solve her friend's murder, even if she is the one that did it. There are lies we tell our family. Those we tell our husbands. Our best friends, and even ourselves. The truth is out there, if we just listen. Listen for the Lie is Luckiest Girl Alive meets Serial, an incredibly propulsive page turner.
