The Stories We Tell: A Novel

“A lyrical exploration of love and longing, secrets and suspicion, family and friendship”from the bestselling author of The Secret Book of Flora Lea (Mary Kay Andrews, New York Times–bestselling author).

Eve and Cooper Morrison are Savannah’s power couple. They’re on every artistic board and deeply involved in the community. The perfect juxtaposition of the old and the new, they are the beautiful people. The lucky ones. And they have the wealth and name that comes from being part of an old Georgia family.

But things may not be as good as they seem.

After twenty-one years together, Eve and Cooper know each other. They count on each other. They know what to expect. But when Cooper and Eve’s sister are involved in a car accident, the questions surrounding the event bring the family close to the breaking point. Sifting between the stories—of Cooper, of her sister, of the evidence—Eve has to find out what really happened. And what she’s going to do about it.

A riveting story about the power of truth, The Stories We Tell will open your eyes and rearrange your heart.
