Family Lies: and Other Stories - Paperback

by Iris Carden (Author)

Emily Clark has most of the elements of a good life. She has a loving family, a large house, and lots of money. She also struggles with living with her own chronic illness, and her mother's dementia. For the most part, things are good, and life follows a predictable, comfortable pattern. Then she receives a note that says: "Give me my money bitch or else." Her comfortable, happy life, starts to unravel, as threats from an unknown source escalate, putting everyone she loves in danger. In addition to the novella Family Lies, this book contains ten short stories, loosely based around the theme of "family."
