What if you thought you murdered your best friend? And if everyone else thought so too? And what if the truth doesn't matter?
After Lucy is found wandering the streets, covered in her best friend Savvy's blood, everyone thinks she is a murderer. Lucy and Savvy were the golden girls of their small Texas town: pretty, smart, and enviable. Lucy married a dream guy with a big ring and an even bigger new home. Savvy was the social butterfly loved by all, and if you believe the rumors, especially popular with the men in town. It's been years since that horrible night, a night Lucy can't remember anything about, and she has since moved to LA and started a new life.
But now the phenomenally huge hit true crime podcast "Listen for the Lie," and its too-good looking host Ben Owens, have decided to investigate Savvy's murder for the show's second season. Lucy is forced to return 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.
The truth is out there, if we just listen.

Honestly this book was so good I couldn't put it done and I really loved the main characters they were so good and its definitely an book to readLove itSo much
I liked this book a lot! I am addicted to True Crime Pods and I couldn’t find anything else to read so it called to me. Different than my normal books. I wasn’t sure if the guilty party until the end and that’s rare for an avid reader like me not to guess. This was funny, sweet, a bit of sexy, mystery and family drama! Well written with a good story! For sure worth the read!
Except for the barrage of "F-words". The story kept my interest and kept me reading. Never really knew the truth to the very end.
Loved this book. I wish other authors could write main characters like this author wrote Lucy. So likeable, but you could tell there's a darker side to her. Now if she did it or not, you'll have to read the book to find out!
Lucy, the main character, is a sarcastic, unapologetic, hot mess and I love her for it.I couldn't put this book down. It kept me guessing from beginning to end.Now that I know how this ends I plan to re-read it, which is something I don't usually do.
