ABOUT:

The highly acclaimed author of Watching Edie returns with a new novel of dark psychological suspense that explores how those closest to us have the most to hide…

As Clara digs into the past, she realizes that no family is truly perfect, and uncovers a link between Luke’s long-lost sister and a strange girl named Hannah. Now Luke’s life is in danger because of the lies once told and the secrets once kept. Can Clara find him before it’s too late?

The Lies We Told by Camilla Way Review

I know I have to be like many other readers out there when it comes to mystery‘s or suspense thrillers. We absolutely love it when you can’t figure out everything until the very end.

Authors that can keep the wheels spinning and wind us up in different ways throughout the story are few and far between. However, Way did a fabulous job with this trippy story.

The funny thing about lies is that eventually they come out. And when they do, such as in this story, bad things can happen.

Told in multiple points of view, the story took us along a path of deep dark secrets that slowly unfolded into disturbing mental issues, crimes, and twisted reality.

The amount of elements that the author added will surprise you along the way and made it a story that was difficult to put down and one that keeps you guessing all the way through.

This thriller is disturbing in many ways but for those that love the dark twisted minds who can come up with these creepy stories, besides me, this is one you definitely have to read. Well Done!
