Stayed tuned for the cover reveal of Barbara Gurney's latest contemporary fiction novel, Diary of Lies.

Here's the blurb:

Kate Wallace keeps a diary recording the way she colours outside the lines to achieve her desires.

In 1968, seven-year-old Kate’s father gambled away their Bassendean home and disappeared. Desperate to survive, her mother obtained a live-in job in a Fremantle boarding house. With the adult residents unintentionally creating make-believe and illusions, Kate’s imagination is ignited. Inevitably, teenage Kate conjures up lies to enhance a mundane life and avoid undesirable circumstances.

In the late 1970s, Kate creates a new persona and builds a life around the socially elite. Then, with financially beneficial affairs and a disastrous marriage behind her, she chases respectability by assisting at charity events, eventually finding her “forever” love.

But did Kate’s attitude, shaped by comparison of others’ lifestyles, create the overture for a life of lies?

Love or hate Kate, somewhere in this tale, you may glimpse a reflection of your own truths.
