If the Witness Lied
by Caroline Cooney

Smithy left for boarding school, Madison moved in with friends...it is Jack who has stuck around to try to make things right for Tris. None of the siblings think much of their Aunt Cheryl, who seems to be taking over the household bit by bit.
The older siblings begin to notice small clues that don't add up to the accepted account of their father's death. When Aunt Cheryl
invites a reality show host to publicize the family's grief (under the guise of helping them heal) she sets into motion a chain of events that sends this book barreling to its exciting conclusion.

About surviving.
And hope.
