From National Book Award winner Judy Blundell, the tale of a sixteen-year-old girl caught in a mix of love, mystery, Broadway glamour, and Mob retribution in 1950 New York.
When Kit Corrigan arrives in New York City, she doesn't have much. She's fled from her family in Providence, Rhode Island, and she's broken off her tempestuous relationship with a boy named Billy, who's enlisted in the army.
The city doesn't exactly welcome her with open arms. She gets a bit part as a chorus girl in a Broadway show, but she knows that's not going to last very long. She needs help--and then it comes, from an unexpected source.

Praise for What I Saw and How I Lied:

Romantic Times Book Review 2008 Reviewers Choice Nominee
"Blundell navigates this multidimensional plotline with unique, well-developed characters and insightful dialogue." -School Library Journal, starred review
"A stylish, addictive brew." -Publishers Weekly, starred review
"Judy Blundell takes readers into the mind and heart of a teenager hungry for truth and afraid of what she might find." -The Washington Post
"An extraordinary story... Gripping." -The Wall Street Journal
"Blundell doesn't miss a step. This is a smart, complex story with a terrific mystery and brilliant characters. Set just after World War II, it captures the era with real pathos and an ugly dose of reality." -Romantic Times Magazine
"This beautifully written story is full of period detail, from a post-war New York City right out of Life magazine to a sleepy and sticky Florida courthouse, and its well-drawn and original characters spring to life on the page... this gripping novel would also make a top-notch read for adults." -Bookpage.com
