A gripping young adult suspense novel drenched in color, mystery, and
lies. New York Times and USA Today bestselling author CJ Lyons grabs
you and won't let go, keeping you guessing until the very last page of
The Color of Lies.
When you can see emotions in color, motives become black and white.
Even murder.
Ella Cleary has always had an eye for the truth. She has synesthesia,
which means she is able to read people via the waves of colors that
surround them. Her unique gift has led her to trust very few people
outside her family since her parents died in a fire. So when a handsome
young journalist appears with no colors surrounding him at all, her
senses go on high alert.
But while Alec is a mystery, Ella feels a connection to him she can't
ignore. Something about him feels familiar, and she is able to talk with
him in ways she can't with anyone else. Then just as feelings develop
between them, Alec drops a bombshell: he believes her parents' deaths
were no accident. And she may be in more danger than she's ever
realized.
Soon Ella doesn't know who she can trust or even who she really is. As
family secrets begin to unravel and fact and fiction collide, it becomes
clear that the only way for Ella to learn the truth about her past is
to find a killer.
