Just finished Behind Every Lie by Christina McDonald. After reading Christina’s first book, The Night Olivia Fell, I was excited to read her new book. I devoured this fast-paced book in a twenty-four hour period.

The main character Eva finds herself in the hospital waking up to find that she was struck by lightning the night before. She has multiple bruises, burns, and cuts on her body. She is told her mother was killed and Detective Jackson wants to question her. Eva does not remember what happened. Her fiancé Liam is there to protect her.

Eva and her mother Kat are the narrators. Kat takes us to England twenty five years ago and We follow Eva as she tries to remember what happened the night her mother dies.

So many twists and turns as the reader immediately becomes engrossed in McDonald’s story. Just when I thought I figured everything out there was a new twist. This is a book I will be thinking about for awhile. I would have liked to have had an epilogue from Eve ten years later. My thanks to NetGalley and Gallery Books for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
