The book of lies / Mary Horlock.

Horlock, Mary. (Author).

Summary:

"This is a brilliant debut novel set on the interesting island of Guernsey in 1985, where the author grew up. THE BOOK OF LIES twists two stories together: One about the confession of a teenaged girl, Cat Rozier, who is pushed to murder her best friend because of unforgivable betrayal. The other story parallels that of Cat's uncle during the island's Nazi occupation during WWII. Captivating, moving, and full of dark humour, the novel takes readers on a lively journey with two unreliable narrators whose unique voices you'll not easily forget."--Publisher.
