About this listen

Some secrets are meant for keeping. Even if it means murder.

With the tragic passing of her mother, Grace is sent to a father she thought was dead, relocating from the bustling streets of inner Melbourne to an island home she doesn’t remember. When she answers the call for help from a sign in a store window, Grace thinks she’s found the perfect job. But behind the smile of a welcoming town sits a community bathed in lies and deceit, and it’s not long before this new arrival is caught in the middle of a deadly mystery.

After finding a hidden diary linked to a 30-year-old disappearance, Grace makes a shocking discovery: a terrifying secret the town has been desperate to protect. As the bodies continue to fall, the diary opens her eyes to the heartbreaking truth, a revelation which could crumble the town’s very foundation. Secrets are for keeping, and some will go to any lengths to defend them, including murder. Will Grace prove her innocence, or will the island protect its secret and silence her forever?

A Lie Worth Living is filled with twists and turns that will leave you gasping, a literary roller-coaster of emotions that come from finding buried secrets. If you love nail-biting suspense, then journey to an island where nothing is as it seems, with an ending you won’t see coming.

Intriguing Tale, Spellbinding from beginning to end!

Grace Miller is stunned to hear that her father is coming to collect her after her mother’s tragic and untimely death! It seems her alcoholic mother was considerably less than truthful about him being … deceased! THAT is just the first in a long list of twists, turns and mysterious goings on in “A Lie Worth Living”. The rest follow swiftly once Grace arrives in her fathers village and begins to look into the history of her new home, and the details surrounding a thirty year old unsolved mystery! Intriguing, delightfully spellbinding, and convincingly narrated, “A Lie Worth Living” held my attention throughout! I loved the mystery, the characters, the story, and the smooth easy flow that kept this story moving, while at the same time making sure to provide all the necessary details to insure the listener is kept firmly in the loop and throughly engaged at all times! I had a clear understanding of what was going on, and I was still completely surprised at the reveal, pleasantly so! No spoilers. I don’t want to ruin the fun by giving any secrets away, all I know is that I loved it. I loved it ALL. Five fantastic stars all around!

Intriguing

I'm completely gobsmacked at the revelations. I'm disappointed in some people I thought were friends. So many had feet of clay and even worse. This truly held my interest until the end. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest opinion. The narrator did a good job bringing it to life.

A quality easy listen

I enjoyed the story line. I did wish a little more happened within the story. It was not a thriller at all. But a quality easy listen that keeps you engaged but not over focused. The narrator did a fantastic job.

Very interesting story

The story was quite good but I wish it was developed a little more. It just seemed to be needing a bit more for a 5 star rating.

A Story Worth The Time!

Definitely leaves you wondering, "what's next?" Loved the lilt in the reader's voice, it was very appropriate for this book, not overbearing but added interest. I didn't see that ending ... good book. Love to listen to more!
