Legal investigator Finley O’Sullivan searches for evidence the police overlooked, wading through secrets, lies, and betrayal to find answers. With the unsolved murder of her husband still very much on her mind, Finley must confront her own personal trauma on a daily basis. Lies are part of her livelihood, but they’re also the reason she can’t get justice for the man she loved.
When a man imprisoned for murder recants his confession, claiming he cleaned up the mess for his girlfriend—the victim’s own daughter—Finley takes on the case. She discovers the victim had identical twin daughters…and the sisters have very different accounts of the crime.
As she dives headlong into the twins’ traumatic past, Finley will have to contend with her own demons to get to the truth—before it’s too late.
MY REVIEW:
The Last Lie Told by Debra WebbMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is the first book of a series and I will definately want to read the rest when they come out.
Finley is a Legal Investigator whose husband was killed. As she is trying to figure out who killed him she is investigating a murder of a man who had twin daughters. The man who is behind bars for the murder is now recanting his story.
Finley has so much going on. Her mother is a judge and is not close to her. The Judge, as Finley calls her, is cold and standoffish and Finley can't seem to do anything right in her eyes. Finley's dad is the opposite and is always there for her.
We keep finding out things about Finley's husband and as we read and get near the end of the book we still have questions, which is what I am assuming the rest of the series will be based on.
The twin daughters are very opposite each other, one is living with their mom and is an introvert, very different than before her dad was killed. The other twin left town to move on with her life. But I was trying to figure out who is really who they say they are.
Meanwhile Finley is questioning another woman which also opens up another can of worms.
By the time I got to the end of the book I had thought I had things figured out and then bam, we are hit with a twist.
Thank you to NetGalley and Thomas & Mercer for the book to review.
