A Good Lie

By Roberta Temes

A bride withholds a shocking secret from her new husband.

Could you keep a secret from your daughter forever? Louie plans to.

Is love enough to keep the marriage together?

When a quiet Midwestern family receives flawed medical advice, psychotic post-partum depression is misdiagnosed and catastrophe ensues. Louie attempts to raise Laurie, his daughter, while perpetuating a devastating lie. Laurie, a desperate, lonely New Jersey teenager, connects with a cunning cult leader and a devious psychotherapist, but they are no match for the two strong women who thoughtfully upend societal expectations and provide wisdom and stability. Family relationships are complicated; love shows up in many forms.
