Nominated for the Folio Prize and shortlisted for the Walter Scott
Prize for Historial Fiction, and the Royal Society of Literature
Ondaatje Prize. Set during and just after the First World War, The
Lie is an enthralling, heart-wrenching novel of love, memory and
devastating loss by one of the UK's most acclaimed storytellers.
Cornwall, 1920, early spring. A young man stands on a headland,
looking out to sea. He is back from the war, homeless and without
family. Behind him lie the mud, barbed-wire entanglements and
terror of the trenches. Behind him is also the most intense
relationship of his life. Daniel has survived, but the horror and
passion of the past seem more real than the quiet fields around
him. He is about to step into the unknown. But will he ever be able
to escape the terrible, unforeseen consequences of a lie?
