Listen for the Lie by Amy Tintera

Lucy and Savvy were the kind of girls everyone envied. However one night, Lucy is found covered in Savvy’s blood and the whole town thinks she's a killer. Years later, Lucy’s rebuilt her life in LA, far away from all that small-town gossip. She can’t remember a thing about that night, but she’s moved on. Or at least, she thought she had—until a true crime podcast, Listen for the Lie, decides to dig into Savvy’s murder for its new season. The host wants answers and Lucy returns to the town she’s avoided like the plague. She’s determined to find out what really happened, even if that means facing the possibility she could be the one who did it. I flew through this story in a day—it had me hooked from start to finish. I don’t even listen to podcasts anymore (I used to be obsessed), but the way this story uses that format is so compelling. Tintera nailed it.
