"Lapena is a master of manipulation." —USA Today
Welcome to Stanhope. A safe neighborhood. A place for families.
On the surface, William Wooler is a family man. But he's been having an affair, an affair that ended horribly this afternoon at a motel up the road. When he returns to his house, devastated and angry, to find his difficult nine-year-old daughter, Avery, unexpectedly home from school, William loses his temper.
Hours later, Avery's family declares her missing.
Suddenly Stanhope doesn't feel so safe. And William isn't the only one on his street who's hiding a lie. As witnesses come forward with information that may or may not be true, his neighbors become increasingly unhinged.
Who took Avery Wooler?
Nothing will prepare you for the truth.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
A child’s abduction tears at the seams of suburban normalcy in Shari Lapena’s engrossing domestic thriller. When precocious nine-year-old Avery goes missing, everyone fears the worst, but the police investigation becomes twisted and confusing when a train wreck of dysfunctional relationships—and the mixed feelings that seemingly everyone has about the missing girl—complicate the narrative. As she proved with her bestseller The Couple Next Door, Lapena has a gift for turning comfy suburban neighbourhoods into twisty mazes of lies and betrayals. We love how each new character she introduces finds a way to shock us with the dark truth hiding behind a squeaky-clean facade. Effective time management is a must, because once you’ve started Everyone Here Is Lying, there’s no stopping until the last page.

It’ll Tide You Over But It’s Not Amazing
So this is a good premise, well written but it’s basically the same wording in different words over and over again before the point is made and then it ends on the most thrilling part. I think there’s more to the story that we need to be told. It just all seemed a bit first draft and not a finished novel.
Everyone here is lying
I usually enjoy this author’s books, but this one left me very disappointed.
