Time Will Tell

By: Barry Lyga

Narrated by: Brittany Pressley, Josh Hurley, Jeanette Illidge, Kevin R. Free

A young-adult thriller ricocheting between the bigotry of the past and present as teens unravel their parents’ secrets. Perfect for fans of One of Us is Lying.

Four teens have dug up the time capsule that their parents buried in 1986 and never bothered to recover. But in addition to the expected ephemera of mixtapes, Walkmans, photographs, letters, toys, and assorted junk, Elayah, Liam, Marcie, and Jorja discover something sinister: a hunting knife stained with blood and wrapped with a note. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to kill anyone."

As the action dramatically alternates between the present day and 1986, the mystery unfolds and the sins of the past echo into today. The teens haven't just unearthed a time capsule: they've also dug up pain and secrets that someone--maybe one of their own parents--is willing to kill for.

The thrills keep coming.

Would highly recommend for mystery and thriller fans. All narrators are excellent, though Brittany is the only one I'm familiar with. I figured one or more of the parents had actually killed someone, but, how it came together was brilliant.

I loved the different voices for the different charactors

I hate the Clif hanger it leaves you on on the epilogue I makes me wonder will there be a second book?

Jabs to many

Thiis book was an interesting plot. kids finding a time capsule from their parents highschool days and finding a mystery. the story was okay until you add in the silent hand the author takes at Christianity, "maga" people, and other views not like his. blatantly putting those people in a box he's writing that gays should not be in. It is very off putting the extent he goes to for this. The sexual tension and hormonally driven content was also a let down. Chapters that otherwise would have been great we're overpowered by this sexualized trash. the performance of the readers of the book was the best thing about the book and kept me listening even when some parts I skipped as it was indecent. would not recommend to be honest. only part I do recommend is the people who read the book has a great presentation of feelings and situations.
