內容簡介

A Munchausen by proxy victim reveals his deepest secrets on a true-crime podcast--but will his audience believe him, let alone his loved ones?

HARROWING NEW DETAILS IN 'MONSTER MOMMY' CASE. . . SHOCKING INFORMATION SURFACES AS 'MONSTER MOMMY' CASE HEADS TO TRIAL. . . HOW COULD A MOTHER POISON HER SON?

Welcome to sixteen-year-old Alex's life, ripped straight from the headlines.

Alex is a victim of Munchausen by proxy, but he's also a witty, sarcastic kid with unusually good crossword skills and a penchant for astronomy. At least he used to be. Now that he's recovered from years of illness induced by his mother, he sort of has to figure out who he is all over again. . . And most importantly, he'll have to decide if he can testify against the woman who gave birth to him.

As Alex awaits the trial, his friends convince him to start a podcast as a way to tell his story. Together, they create "Lethal Lullaby." The podcast brings Alex closer to his old life--hanging out with friends, cracking jokes, having fun. . . At the same time, new memories surface and disturbing revelations come out, forcing Alex to acknowledge that the podcast could be making things worse. It seems like he's got deeper issues than he'd like to admit-and this time, he can't blame them on his mom.

Day by day, Alex's mental health crumbles, until he can no longer distinguish between truth and fiction. Should he trust himself to testify? And if he gets up there, what version of the truth will he share?

This breathtaking YA debut is perfect for fans of Sadie and The Act. Come for the can't-look-away take on true crime, stay for the honest portrayal of mental illness.
