THE LIES I LEFT BEHIND
Two decades after leaving Amsterdam with a broken leg and a shattered spirit, Meg keeps her life small, pushing away memories of the terrible thing she and her best friend Lydia did in college. But when Lydia pops back into Meg's life with the alarming message that their former professor has died and his spirit is tormenting her, Meg takes it as a sign to finally attend to her unfinished business, and returns to Amsterdam.
Upon Meg's arrival, however, Lydia is nowhere to be found.
An unsettling scene in Lydia's empty apartment points to her abduction or even murder. If Meg wants to put her past to rest, she needs to find Lydia, but every step she takes to discover what happened brings her closer to a danger she never wanted to face again.

A note from Liz:
Hello! Are you an adult fiction editor at a publishing house? Are you looking for a psychological thriller about a woman confronting her past and finding her present self, set in atmospheric European city? If The Lies I've Left Behind sounds appealing to you, let me know and I'll connect you with my literary agent, Allison Hellegers!
Yes, I know this is not typically how books are pitched to editors, but hey, you're here, I wrote this, and I thought you should know!
