Unraveling Lillie - Paperback

Navigating life post-breakup would have been tough enough without the discovery of her ex's dead body. Years of manipulation have left Lillie Pyke feeling her way through the dark. After mustering up what little courage she had remaining, she called off the engagement to her psychologically abusive boyfriend, Rodney, only to be haunted by the choice. All eyes are on her as the hometown she once felt so safe in declares her the vengeful ex-bride-to-be.

Confessing to the manipulation of crime scene evidence, her rebound lover seems to have skin in the game on a deeper level than ever anticipated. The pieces all seem to come together as no one can confirm his alibi on the night of the homicide, including his stepfather caught lying to the big-shot Philadelphia detective. Things continue to look worse for her lover as the homicide location is one that he considers a favorite hangout spot.

Elaborate facades of people she had once trusted crack and crumble as Lillie prods for answers. Can she trust the rekindled friendship with Rodney's sister, Alice? Everyone has something to hide, and some secrets may be worth killing for. Racing against the clock to find tangible evidence that will keep her from a life sentence forces her to gamble with her own safety, reputation, and emotional stability. Should she play all her cards for just a glimpse at a chance of freedom?
