Sherri Leimkuhler
What’s Left Untold
Every secret has its price.
Anna Clark and Lia Clay were unlikely best friends in high school, but their yin-and-yang personalities drew them together in a sister-like bond. Then during college, Lia inexplicably walked out on their friendship and disappeared, leaving Anna hurt, confused, and disillusioned.
Twenty years later, Anna discovers a letter Lia wrote the summer after high school—a letter that contains a cryptic postscript concealing a devastating truth. With her twenty-year high school reunion approaching, Anna moves closer to uncovering the secret in Lia’s letter and the heartbreaking consequences it set in motion.
As the layers of deceit and betrayal begin to unravel, Anna is forced to question everything she believes and come to terms with what it means to forgive the one person who hurt her in the worst way imaginable.

– Suanne Schafer, author of Hunting the Devil
“Female friendships can be the one of life’s most treasured gifts … or they can be something that ruins your life forever. This book has a bit of both … and certainly takes the reader through so many emotions that you’re not sure whether to love or hate the characters! Well written, fast paced and definitely kept me invested throughout the story. It’s also one of those books you can finish on a lazy Sunday and feel completely satisfied.”
