The Stories You Tell is Shamus Award-winning and Anthony and Macavity Award-nominated author Kristen Lepionka's heart-pounding third novel that will keep listeners on the edge of their seats with her signature twists and mile-high stakes.
A late-night phone call is never good news, especially when youโre Roxane Weary. This one is from her brother Andrew whose evening was interrupted by a visit from Addison, a hip young DJ he knows from the hotel bar where he works. She was drunk, bloody, and hysterical, but she wouldnโt say what was wrong. After using his phone, she left as quickly as she appeared, and Andrew is worried. Thatโs when he calls Roxane.
But another late-night call occurs as well: Addisonโs father calls the police after getting a panicked voicemail from his daughter. The only thing he could understand is the address she gave in the messageโAndrewโs. Before long, the police are asking Andrew all about why thereโs blood in his apartment and what he did to Addison. Meanwhile, another cop is found dead on the opposite side of town, leading to a swirl of questions surrounding a dance club whose staffโwhich includes Addisonโhas suddenly gone AWOL.
