Consider "The Sea of Lost Girls" by Carol Goodman

I enjoy visiting the Cleveland Museum of Art and wandering through the galleries. For me, it's an inspiring place. Most often, I'm drawn to the impressionist and modern galleries. Standing in front of a Monet, Renoir, or Picasso, I'm struck by how the painting and its impact change depending on the angle of view and the distance from the work. I feel moved standing before the work of a master of the craft.

So too with The Sea of the Lost Girls. A murder mystery in the hands of a master. Way beyond the multiple, intersecting theories of the crime, each with a different suspect. It's the different perspectives this tale creates depending on your angle and distance.

This story is a thrilling murder mystery, but the tale is about the narrow, but unmistakable, line between truth and lies - the pain that comes with crossing over that line, the people in our lives who are innocently damaged by lies, and the Herculean effort required to cross back over the line to truth.

I had no idea what I was diving into when I pulled this book off the shelf at the library. And now, for the time being, I'll have to select from some other shelf.
