The Lies You Tell was previously published as Swimming Upstream.
'I once read that the end of a relationship is like being involved in a road traffic accident. Which is quite fitting really, given what happened.'
Cambridge, 1992.
For Lizzie Taylor, one moment changes her life forever. When she accidentally steps into the path of an oncoming car, her old friend Catherine and her charming fiancé Martin come to the rescue. But Lizzie soon wonders if Martin is really all that he seems? And what secret is Catherine hiding?
As the two women reconnect, Lizzie finds the courage to make drastic changes and heads to London to pursue her career – not knowing that a terrible, unforgivable betrayal will soon rip apart the new life she's built. Set in the early 1990s in Cambridge and London, The Lies You Tell is a story of divided loyalties and the moral choices we face everyday.
For fans of Liane Moriarty and Lucy Whitehouse.
