Her Last Lie by J.S. Lark

-
Welcome to my stop on Rachel’s Random Resources tour for the thriller, Her Last Lie.


Guilt. Motherhood. Murder.

When the body of Jen’s teenage son, Eli, is found at the edge of a lake, her shock and grief are overwhelming. She feels guilty because she wasn’t at home the night he was killed.

As the police investigation intensifies, and her son’s estranged father reappears in her life, Jen hides a secret, while yearning to know what really happened.

Soon she begins to wonder if her son’s friends are hiding something. And after she learns that Eli had a girlfriend it becomes more and more difficult to separate the truth from the lies…Did her son have a secret life she knew nothing about?

And can she unlock the truth about what happened to Eli on that fateful night before someone else gets hurt?

Review:

As a mother this book tore at my heart. A teenage boy is found dead at the beginning of the book. We follow the family throughout the police investigation and it is heartbreaking. There are several trigger warnings for this book so please look at them before you read. The author does an amazing job telling this story. I related to the characters and felt I was living this sorry with them. Id you are looking for a book to capture all of your attention, this book is it.

Welcome to my stop on The Children’s Book Review in partnership with Catherine Rose for her book, Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection. About the Book: Coloring the Rainbow: The Power of Connection tells a story of the magic created when the unique talents of a diverse group of children are shared in a colorful adventure. The adventure begins when we see through a boy’s window to find a young trombonist pausing his practice to wonder if other musical voices exist. When an alluring treble note wafts through his window, he begins an excited quest to find the answer. Playing his horn through his neighborhood, the boy draws other curious children to play their unique instruments along with him. Together, they played: “Lend your voice, play your part! Something grand is beginning― join us for the start!” The procession of music makers is touched with magic when their combined voices, raised in harmony, orchestrate a colorful miracle. The ease of poetry and vibrant il

Thank you to Rachel’s Random Resources for putting together this virtual book tour! About the Book: For Iris , each visit to her mother in St Mabon’s Cove, Cornwall has been the same – a serene escape from the city. But today, as she breathes in the salt air on the doorstep of her beloved childhood home, a heavy weight of anticipation settles over her. Iris knows she’s adopted, but any questions about where she came from have always been shut down by her parents, who can’t bear to revisit the past. Now, Iris can’t stop thinking about what she’s read on the official paperwork: BABY GIRL, FRANCE, 1939 – the year war was declared with Nazi Germany. When Iris confronts her mother, she hits the same wall of pain and resistance as whenever she mentions the war. That is, until her mother tearfully hands her an old tin of letters, tucked neatly beside a delicate piece of ivory wool. Retreating to the loft, Iris steels herself to at last learn the truth, however painful it might be. Bu

Today I have the first book in a new series to share with you. Lauren Carr's Sam Mackade PI Mystery series starts with The Prime Suspect . Book Description: Two murders with one common denominator. Both victims betrayed Bryce Greyson. How could she not be the prime suspect? Four years after Bryce’s cheating husband is gunned down, her boyfriend-stealing former roommate’s remains are found buried under a statue at her alma mater. Declared the prime suspect by both detectives and the media, Bryce has no choice but to hire someone to clear her name. Enter Sam MacKade, private eye. To solve two murders, the former police K-9 officer and his canine partners must sift through the clues and the lies to reveal the true  prime suspect . Review: I’ve read Lauren Carr’s books before and loved them and this book is no different. The book opens with a cast or character (in order of appearance) that is super handy to reference back to (plus for physical books!) when you are learning the characte
