Publisher's Summary

Brought to you by Penguin.

Am I a murderer? You tell me . . .

You probably already know my name. Lucy Chase, the woman who doesn’t remember murdering her best friend.

Even though they couldn’t find enough evidence to charge me, I know you all think I did it. That’s OK. I realise being found wandering the streets the next day covered in her blood wasn't a great look.

Believe me, I’m as frustrated as you are. I’d love to know if I’m a murderer – it’s the sort of thing you really should know about yourself, isn’t it?

And now, thanks to true-crime podcast Listen for the Lie, I finally have the chance to find out. But will I be able to live with myself if it turns out it was me?

And if it wasn’t, will digging into the secrets of the night I forgot make me the next target of whoever did?

Perfect for fans of HOW TO KILL YOUR FAMILY by Bella Mackie, NONE OF THIS IS TRUE by Lisa Jewell and MURDER IN THE FAMILY by Cara Hunter.

The book has a very strong and long build up

The overall story is about the murder of a young girl Savvy in a small town in Texas. The number one suspect and narrator is her best friend Lucy. Lucy has forgotten what happened on the night of the murder and the rest of book focuses on slowly finding out the truth.
The humour and dialogues are great especially the banter between Lucy and the Podcaster Ben. The author does a good job of keeping Lucy's character interesting. The voice in her head is interesting but later on just gets irritating and leads nowhere (used to make the book longer). The various people involved are also shown with distinct personalities and would have preferred to know them a bit better especially Nina (Lucy's best friend in school) and Matt (Lucy's ex husband). The audio performance elevates the story and keeps the listener guessing.
The biggest issue with this story is that it just keeps building up without any twists and finishes tamely. The ending seemed rushed and anti climatic.
