    What Lies Between Us
    What Lies Between Us is a story of a women living her life with the Civil War in Sri Lanka as a background. It is described as a beautiful and colorful place full of birds and nature, but marred by the tragic events caused by the war. The book asks the question of how the war has affected the main character and if the tragic events would have happened if not for the war.
