A review by mackenzierm
Lie Still by Julia Heaberlin

4.0

First line: “The ring glittered, resting on the dirt of the forest floor, the sun catching it in the fractured afternoon light falling through the leaves.

A good read from a newer author (at least one I’ve never heard of).
I really enjoyed the plot and was surprised by the result of the whodunnit.

My main issue with the novel was that there were several places where the story seemed to ravel out on its own in a nonsensical fashion. I would have to go back a page or two to figure out what was going on...to find that it was not made any more clear by backtracking.

Overall, an interesting novel....I will be keeping my eye out for more work by this author!
