"The Lace Reader" is the gripping debut novel from up-and-coming author Brunonia Barry, that examines the fragile relationship between reality and lies that forms the world we inhabit. Towner Whitney is one of a family of women in Salem, Massachusetts, who read the future in the patters in lace - or perhaps she isn't. In fact, Towner Whitney, the self-described unreliable narrator, exists in a world of secrets and lies that her family has woven for generations. But her entire world is threatened when the disappearance of two women brings her home to Salem and a truth she has long denied about the death of her twin sister. Mesmerizing and unique, "The Lace Reader" is a can't miss read.
