I finished The Lies They Told Us by Wiseman. It was outstanding. I've enjoyed all her books. If if I have one critique, all her books have a teenage female protagonist, who experiences some unspeakable horror. Most involve some form on incarceration either concentration camp (The Plum Tree) and asylum, (What she left behind, The Lost Girls of Willowbrook, and The Lies they Told Us). All are centered around some horrible social injustice, except maybe The Orphan Collector.
That said, I loved the book and couldn't put fit down. It started a bit slow but about 1/2 way through I spent the night finishing it. I just wish she'd branch out just a bit.
I started Dan Brown's new one The Secret of Secrets. Although Ken Follet's new one arrives to my Kindle tomorrow, a story centered around building Stonehenge.
