Shadows Of A Liar (en Inglés) - Wayne Timothy Boone

Abandoned at birth, Wayne Boone grows up believing his father wants nothing to do with him. But when the man reappears, Wayne -longing for answers and a connection-allows him into his life. What begins as cautious curiosity slowly twists into something darker.

For seventeen years, Wayne's father weaves a web of manipulation, offering fleeting moments of affection while pulling strings that keep Wayne doubting himself and desperate for approval. Promises are made and broken, love is dangled like a prize, and Alex learns to live in the shadow of a man who takes more than he ever gives.

As Wayne comes of age, he begins to see the cracks in the lies. With the help of true friends and his own inner strength, he pieces together the reality: his father's control has been nothing more than a selfish game. To break free, Alex must face the painful truth that love doesn't always come from where you expect-and sometimes family is the one you choose, not the one you're born to.

Raw, gripping, and ultimately empowering, The Shadows of a Liar is a coming-of-age novel about betrayal, survival, and the strength it takes to reclaim your life from the hands that tried to control it.
