A NATIONAL BESTSELLER From the author of The Islanders comes a warm, witty and suspenseful novel filled with small-town secrets, summer romance, big time lies and spiked seltzer, in the vein of Liane Moriarty. Truth: Sherri Griffin and her daughter, Katie, have recently moved to the idyllic beach town of Newburyport, Massachusetts. Rebecca Coleman, widely acknowledged former leader of the Newburyport Mom Squad (having taken a step back since her husbandâs shocking and tragic death eighteen months ago), has made a surprising effort to include these newcomers in typically closed-group activities. Rebeccaâs teenage daughter Alexa has even been spotted babysitting Katie. Truth: Alexa has time on her hands because of a recent falling-out with her longtime best friends for reasons no one knowsâbut everyone suspects have to do with Alexaâs highly popular and increasingly successful YouTube channel. Katie Griffin, who at age 11 probably doesnât need a babysitter anymore, canât be left alone because she has terrifying nightmares that donât seem to jibe with the vague story Sherri has floated about the âbad divorceâ she left behind in Ohio. Rebecca Coleman has been spending a lot of time with Sherri, itâs true, but sheâs also been spending time with someone else she doesnât want the Mom Squad to know about just yet. Lie: Rebecca Coleman doesnât have a new man in her life, and definitely not someone connected to the Mom Squad. Alexa is not seeing anyone new herself and is planning on shutting down her YouTube channel in advance of attending college in the fall. Sherri Griffinâs real name is Sherri Griffin, and a bad divorce is all sheâs running from. A blend of propulsive thriller and gorgeous summer read, Two Truths and a Lie reminds us that happiness isnât always a day at the beach, some secrets arenât meant to be shared, and the most precious things are the people we love.
