About the book

Liquid Lies follows best friends CiCi and Francesca. As teenagers, a night that began as a celebration ended in tragedy, with fallout neither of them could have imagined. For four years they kept what happened buried. Then a blackmailer appeared, threatening to bring their secret to light.

The novel layers twists and unexpected turns over a coming-of-age story. As CiCi is pulled into a terrible chain of events, she has to wrestle with the lies she has told and the consequences she never intended.
