Reviews
"Anna Bailey's debut is irresistible, a compelling and nuanced psychological thriller suffused with small town prejudice and dark family secrets" -- Paula Hawkins, New York Times bestselling author of The Girl on The Train, "Simmering resentments and long-held prejudices boil over in this beautifully realised evocation of small-town America.

Where the Truth Lies is a dazzling debut." --Kate Hamer, author of The Girl in the Red Coat, "An intricate and compelling thriller, beautifully nuanced and wonderfully claustrophobic. Brilliant." -- SJ Watson, New York Times bestselling author of Final Cut, "Where the Truth Lies brilliantly conjures up the oppressive claustrophobia of the small town and I felt so strongly about some of the characters that I had to check the ending to make sure they were ok! Extremely well written... fantastic." -- Harriet Tyce, bestselling author of The Lies You Told, "Gripping and so beautifully written Where the Truth Lies is spellbinding; dark and menacing, but also so full of love and hope. I loved it. I cried." --Cressida McLaughlin, author of The Cornish Cream Tea Summer, "Brilliant! Could not put it down. It's utterly gripping and beautifully written." -- Katie Fforde, author of A Rose Petal Summer, "A terrific debut about guilt, secrets and complex family dynamics - the writing is vivid & assured: Anna Bailey is definitely one to watch." -- Lucy Atkins, author of Magpie Lane, "An elegant, mesmerizing debut--Anna Bailey explores festering secrets and family trauma with a sharp, yet tender gaze.

Small-town intrigue, exquisitely drawn." --Jane Harper, author of The Dry and The Lost Man, "This is a striking first novel, a chilling insight into an oppressive world, where bad thoughts and bad deeds ripple just below the surface." --The Observer, " Where the Truth Lies is as atmospheric as it gets - a stunning debut that delivers on every level.

By the end, we've uncovered the darkest secrets of a nightmare family and of this slice of small-town America, post Nam, post Trump. It's rightly billed as a thriller, but this debut by a 26-year-old Englishwoman heralds the arrival of a major novelist." --A.N. Wilson, author of The Victorians, "Anna Bailey writes like a dream about teenage love and lust, the terror of knowledge and the claustrophobia of families and of small towns.Tall Bones is as brutal, as bittersweet, as tender and as tense as first love itself." -- Emma Flint, author of Little Deaths

Synopsis
When a teenaged girl disappears from an insular small town, all of the community's most devastating secrets come to light in this stunningly atmospheric and slow-burning suspense novel--perfect for fans of Megan Miranda and Celeste Ng. The town of Whistling Ridge guards its secrets. When seventeen-year-old Abigail goes missing, her best friend Emma, compelled by the guilt of leaving her alone at a party in the woods, sets out to discover the truth about what happened. The police initially believe Abi ran away, but Emma doesn't believe that her friend would leave without her, and when officers find disturbing evidence in the nearby woods, the festering secrets and longstanding resentment of both Abigail's family and the people of Whistling Ridge, Colorado begin to surface with devastating consequences. Among those secrets: Abi's older brother Noah's passionate, dangerous love for the handsome Rat, a recently arrived Romanian immigrant who has recently made his home in the trailer park in town; her younger brother Jude's feeling that he knows information he should tell the police, if only he could put it into words; Abi's father's mercurial, unpredictable rages and her mother's silence. Then there is the rest of Whistling Ridge, where a charismatic preacher advocates for God's love in language that mirrors violence, under the sway of the powerful businessman who rules the town, insular and wary of outsiders. But Abi had secrets, too, and the closer Emma grows to unraveling the past, the farther she feels from her friend. And in a tinder box of small-town rage, and all it will take is just one spark--the truth of what really happened that night--to change their community forever.
