About this listen

'A powerful and poignant memoir that transforms loss into a legacy of love and hope' Katriona O'Sullivan, bestselling author of Poor

At approximately 3.15 a.m. on 2 August 2015, eight-year-old Irish girl Sarah Corbett Lynch was lifted from her bed by a Davidson County police officer and carried downstairs, shielded from the chaos that had broken out around her.

Hours passed before Sarah learned that her beloved father Jason was dead. And the people who killed him were Sarah's stepmother Molly Martens and her father Tom.

Now Sarah tells her story for the first time and reveals the startling truth of life behind closed doors in her family's suburban North Carolina home.

Sarah recalls the weeks and months leading up to that night in August, and the use of manipulation and gaslighting by Molly Martens - the only mother she had ever known. She describes the traumatic years after her father's death as she and her brother Jack fought for justice from the safety of their new loving home in Limerick, Ireland, with Jason's family.

A Time for Truth is a unique testimony of devastation, survival and hope, against the odds.©2025 Sarah Corbett Lynch (P)2025 Hodder & Stoughton Limited

An incredible young lady

Sarah is a force to be reckoned with. To have the strength to write this book is one thing but to narrate it also is another. To hear such a harrowing and unjust story told from Sarah directly is just heartbreaking. This book is a must read/listen.

A must read

What an incredibly powerful story told by an equally incredibly powerful young lady. I had to pause several times due to overwhelming sadness and anger but I am so glad Sarah finally got to tell her story. You have absolutely done your Dad proud. I wish you all the success and happiness in the world going forward, god knows you deserve it
