The Lies You Told: The unmissable thriller from the bestselling author of Blood Orange

Product Information

Her recollection of the days leading up to the accident appear to have been wiped clean, leaving her disoriented and confused. She arrives with her ten year old daughter, Robin, to the house that carries many bad memories for Sadie, and Robin starts at the most exclusive school in London, where the pressure is really on from parents for their child to be the best. Needless to say, the pacing of this novel was incredibly fast, and I found myself reading 80+ pages in one sitting, which is incredible for me! I particularly liked the court case story, I did feel that this could have been a book all on its own and we could have gone more in depth into the characters involved. This was a slow burn whodunnit featuring an amateur sleuth (thank you Marisa for needing to find out what happened to your sister) as well as family drama and twins, all things that are right in my wheelhouse.

Jede einzelne der gefühlt 17 Plotbaustellen wurde haarsträubend aufgeklärt; oder am Ende einfach gar nicht mehr erwähnt.She did not have a good relationship with her mother, or really any relationship at all in more recent years, but her mother has left her the house under one condition. Sadie Roper moves from New York back to her childhood home in England with her daughter, Robin, after separating from her cheating husband. Next, she’s going to get back the high-flying criminal barrister career she sacrificed for marriage ten years earlier.

I know it’s really confusing but the problems a bunch of female characters’ dealing were going nowhere. Character-driven with highly flawed and dysfunctional family members with mental health, addictions, etc.

Present continuous ( I am working) Present perfect continuous ( I have been working) Present perfect simple ( I have worked) Present perfect simple or present perfect continuous? I really only had a couple of gripes with the book, and one was that even though it isn't a long book (under 350 pages) it still FELT on the long side to me.
