The Lies We Tell by Jane Corry

You did what any mother would do . . . and now someone else's son is dead.

Sarah always thought of herself and her husband, Tom, as good people. But that was before their son Freddy came home saying he'd done something terrible. Begging them not to tell the police.

Soon, Sarah and Tom must find out just how far they'll push themselves, and their marriage, to protect their only child...

As the lies build up and Sarah is presented with the perfect opportunity to get Freddy off the hook, she is faced with a terrible decisionβ€”will she save him, but in the process, damn herself?
