A YA thriller described as The Curious Incident of the
Dog in the Night-Time meets John le Carré, about a teen
math prodigy with an extreme anxiety disorder who finds
himself caught in a web of lies and conspiracies after an
assassination attempt on his mother. Seventeen-year-old Peter Blankman is a math genius. He also
suffers from devastating panic attacks. Pete gets through
each day with the help of his mother—a famous scientist—and
his beloved twin sister, Bel. But when his mom is nearly assassinated in front of his eyes
and Bel disappears, Pete finds himself on the run. Dragged
into a world where state and family secrets intertwine, Pete
must use his extraordinary analytical skills to find his
missing sister and track down the people who attacked his
mother. But his greatest battle will be with the enemy
inside: the constant terror that threatens to overwhelm him. Weaving between Pete’s past and present, This Story Is a
Lie is a testimony from a protagonist who is brilliant,
broken and trying to be brave.
