The Color of Lies, by CJ Lyons
When you can see emotions in color,
motives become black and white. Even murder.
High school senior Ella Cleary has
always been able to read people. And for good reason: she has a rare medical
condition called synesthesia that scrambles the senses, allowing Ella to see
colors that reveal people’s true emotions. Everyone but Alec’s.
Alec is a mystery to Ella, a handsome,
enigmatic young journalist who makes her feel normal for the first time in her
life … until he reveals the real reason he sought her out. He wants to learn
the truth behind her parents’ deaths. And Ella’s world turns upside down when
Alec tells her their deaths were not an accident.
After learning her entire life is based
on a lie, Ella doesn’t know who she can trust or even who she truly is. With
family secrets slowly revealed and the evidence mixing fact and fiction, the
only way for Ella to learn the truth about her past is to find a killer.
