Descripción editorial
“Assured, compelling, and hypnotically readable—with a twist at the end I guarantee you won’t see coming” (New York Times bestselling author Lee Child), T. M. Logan’s debut psychological thriller dissects a troubled marriage straight to the marrow as one man separates the truth from the Lies…
Six days ago, Joe Lynch was a happily married man, a devoted father, and a respected teacher living in a well-to-do London suburb. But that was before he spotted his wife’s car entering a hotel parking garage. Before he saw her in a heated argument with her best friend’s husband. Before Joe confronted the other man in an altercation where he left him for dead, bleeding and unconscious.
Now, Joe’s life is unraveling. His wife has lied to him. Her deception has put their entire family in jeopardy. The man she met at the hotel has vanished. And as the police investigate his disappearance, suspicion falls on Joe.
Unable to trust the woman he loves, Joe finds himself at the mercy of her revelations and deceits, unsure of who or what to believe. All he knows is that her actions have brought someone dangerous into their lives—someone obsessed with her and determined to tear Joe’s world apart.
What if your whole life was based on LIES?
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
A spur-of-the-moment decision forever changes the life of Joe Lynch, the narrator of British author Logan's gripping first novel. One weekday afternoon, Joe and his four-year-old son, William, are driving in North London when Wills spots his mother Mel's car, which exits off a ramp into a hotel parking lot. Deciding to surprise his wife, Joe drives into the same parking lot, where he catches Mel arguing with Ben Delaney, who's married to one of her closest friends. To spare Wills any upset, Joe doesn't intervene, and Mel drives off without seeing them. A short time later, the suspicious Joe confronts Ben in the parking lot and knocks him unconscious. Mel later admits to an affair, Ben goes missing, and Joe is accused of murder. But Joe knows Ben is alive, because he's communicated with him through social media. As the evidence continues to mount against him, Joe must find Ben to prove his innocence. Uncovering more lies, Joe soon realizes he can trust no one. Full of unexpected twists and turns, this psychological thriller will leave readers eager for Logan's next book.
