Splendidly twisty, with a compelling inner momentum, it keeps its secrets until the final pages * Daily Mail * This is a real page turner. I finished it in one go! * Martina Cole * A.J. Park is a master of suspense who knows how to keep readers hovering tensely over the edges of their seats * Sophie Hannah * The First Lie has everything I want in a thriller. Riveting, fast-paced, and full of twists and unforgettable characters, and that one rare quality: I absolutely could not put it down. * Chris Mooney * A great thriller that will keep you turning the pages late into the night. A story that will continuously make you question what you would do in the same position. Great read! * Luca Veste * Where nothing is as it seems, The First Lie is twisty, layered and compelling. A genuine page-turner, A.J. Park has a big future in British crime fiction * M.W. Craven * What a fantastic read it was! It's a superbly gripping and brilliantly twisty tale * Simon Lelic * Fast-moving, gripping, the ground shifting perpetually beneath your feet as you read... I read it in one sitting * Alex Marwood * What an incredible thriller it is. So many twists and turns that I didn't see coming, and extremely engrossing * Susan Lewis * Tightly plotted, well-drawn characters and an edge of your seat page-turner * Cathy Kelly * In this gripping debut, we see how one lie leads to another, leaving the couple to wonder who they can trust - if anyone * Woman's Weekly * A terrific debut * Alex Gray * Full of drama and suspense * My Weekly * A gripping read * The Sun *
