Lies like poison

 Lies like poison

On sale November 10th 2020.

Raven lost his mother to a violent crime and the person responsible was never caught. His grieving father has remarried and now Ravens step mom and Lilly live in their estate. 

Belladonna and Raven seem like the perfect couple with Bella always looking out for and taking care of him. Bella and Poppy try going to the police for the abuse Ravens step mom is doing to him but there is not proof so they assume the girls are lying. Raven is being sent away and Bella has come up with a plan to murder his step mom. They will put flower petals in her tea. Belladonna, Poppy and Lilly. That way the murder can not be traced back to them. One of them chickens out and the whole plan falls apart. Raven gets sent away and 3 years later the step mom is actually murdered with the recipe for murder that Bella wrote all those years ago. 

Now Jack (formally Poppy) is trying to figure out who the real killer is and they dont have a lot of time. So many buried secrets are brought to life and the struggles of the friendships will keep you on your toes. I really enjoyed this book...

*Thank you NetGalley and Simon and Schuster children's publishing for the advanced e-copy for my honest review*
