A Beautiful Lie


I enjoyed A Beautiful Lie by Diane Chamberlain which is another story where the past catches up with the present. Young woman, Corinne, learns that her mother Eve is not the person she thought she was. Many years before in "another life" Eve as a teenager, with a different identity as CeeCee, is infatuated with an older man and agrees to to be involved with the kidnapping of the Governor's wife. She keeps the wife in a remote cabin waiting to hear from her "boyfriend" but circumstances take a tragic turn when the wife gives birth. A good story. Reader beware - this book has two other titles - "The Lost Daughter" and "The Secret Life of CeeCee Wilkes", see also Diane Chamberlain's Blog. 4/5
