Lie With Me

Reviews / Votes

Brilliantly executed - I loved every page. -- Clare Mackintosh, author of <i>I Let You Go</i> A sizzling tale of deceit, betrayal and entrapment that is extraordinarily well-crafted and utterly gripping - a stunning summer read * Daily Mail * A perfect thriller: clever, classy and shocking. I read it in one day. -- Erin Kelly, author of <i>He Said/She Said</i> I doubt there will be a better beach read out this summer * Daily Express * An unsettling, disturbing but utterly brilliant, gripping read with a terrific twist * Sunday Mirror * A dark and well-plotted psychological thriller. -- Sebastian Faulks If you've had a hole in your literary life since finishing Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train, this is the book to fill it * Grazia * Tightly plotted and taut with psychological suspense, I couldn't put down this gripping novel. In my mind, Lie With Me is set to be one of this summer's biggest hits. -- Lucy Clarke, author of <i>Last Seen</i> Ingenious plotting, fine characterisation and assured pacing * The Sunday Times * Enormous fun, a psychological thriller worthy of Ruth Rendell or Patricia Highsmith.... The way the narration keeps us guessing is masterly * Guardian * A clever, engaging thriller to frantically binge-read as the tension mounts and all the subtle clues that Durrant has skilfully hidden begin to reveal themselves * Red Magazine * The word-perfect portrait of character leading to disaster, the unfurling dread, the ingenious plotting... I feel sick with envy that I didn't write it myself. -- Alex Marwood, author of <i>The Darkest Secret</i> I was intrigued, unsettled and utterly engrossed from the very first page...so beautifully written and intelligently constructed -- Laura Barnett, author of <i>The Versions of Us</i> Grabs you from the first page and never lets you go. If, like me, you have been longing for a psycho-thriller of genius since you finished Gone Girl, then the wait is finally over. -- Tony Parsons, author of <i>The Murder Bag</i> Simmering with menace, and with a blisteringly taut and twisted plot. Simply superb. -- Sarah Hilary, author of <i>Someone Else's Skin</i> I absolutely loved it: claustrophobic, gripping, and beautifully written with a growing sense of foreboding until the unexpected, final twist. -- Claire Douglas, author of <i>The Sisters</i> Tense, darkly funny and morally complex. I wished Lie With Me wouldn't end. -- Tamar Cohen, author of <i>When She Was Bad</i> An exceptional novel that seduced me from the first page and tightened its grip with every chapter. I'm not sure it has released me even now. -- Claire Kendal, author of <i>The Book of You</i> A compelling, clever, claustrophobic read with a brilliantly executed anti-hero - I loved Lie With Me! -- Angela Clarke, author of <i>Follow Me</i> A tremendously engrossing, unnerving story...delivers suspense from the outset and dark jokes and surprises throughout -- Mark Lawson
