After the Lie
After the Lie | Kerry Fisher
Your past will devastate your family. But your lies could destroy them. What would YOU do? Lydia has been living a lie for the last twenty years. She will do anything to protect her husband, gorgeous, reliable Mark, and their two teenagers, from the secrets of her past - and her mother will make sure of it. When a figure Lydia prayed never to see again turns up at the school gates, Lydia feels the life she has worked so hard to build begin to slip between her fingers. Lydia's past will challenge everything her family thought they knew. Taking them on a journey that will irrevocably change their own lives - and Lydia's - forever. And when an inconceivable twist of fate sends everyone reeling, can Lydia fight to hold her already-fractured family together? From the author of THE ISLAND ESCAPE comes a powerful and heartbreaking story, perfect for fans of Liane Moriarty and Diane Chamberlain.

This is the second book I have read by Kerry Fisher, The Silent Wife being the other one, and I have to say I have really enjoyed both! Very much about revealing the back story about a secret in the past, and how to deal and resolve things when that past comes back to shake the very foundations of your new life. I do recommend them and Kerry Fisher. You almost cringe at times wondering when that dam will break!

3.5 Stars - I did want to love this book but unfortunately I didn't feel as drawn into the story as I had hoped. The story shows exactly how far some people will go to keep a secret, as well as the aftermath when a secret is revealed.
