About this listen

BE PREPARED TO PUT YOUR LIFE ON HOLD FOR THIS ADDICTIVE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING THRILLER - WITH A TWIST THAT YOU WILL NEVER SEE COMING.

'A jaw dropping last line twist' Lisa Jewell, #1 bestselling author of The Family Upstairs

'Impossible to put down' Independent

'Will grasp you unapologetically from the first page to the last.' READER REVIEW

Sadie loves her daughter and will do anything to keep her safe.

She can't tell her why they had to leave home so quickly - or why Robin's father won't be coming with them to London.

She can't tell her why she hates being back in her dead mother's house, with its ivy-covered walls and its poisonous memories.

And she can't tell her the truth about the school Robin's set to start at - a school that doesn't welcome newcomers.

Sadie just wants to get their lives back on track.

But even lies with the best intentions can have deadly consequences...

'I read The Lies You Told in two days, barely able to turn the pages fast enough. It's spare and taut, the sense of wrongness building in chilling, skilfully written layers, with a jaw dropping last line twist' Lisa Jewell, #1 bestselling author

'I adored Blood Orange and therefore could not wait to get my hands on The Lies You Told. It is a triumphant encore, every bit as intriguing, well-written and addictive as its predecessor' Sara Collins, award-winning author of The Confessions of Frannie Langton

'An absolute page turner with a twist you'll read twice because you can't believe you missed it' John Marrs, author of What Lies Between Us

'Totally addictive - I was gripped' Sophie Hannah, author of Haven't They Grown

'A twisty page-turner from the author of Blood Orange' Sarah Pinborough, author of Behind Her Eyes

Was quite repetitive, they do the school run, go to work, weekend. Not as good

Was an OK read. Nowhere as good as Blood Orange

This book is so gripping that I kept running for longer just to see what was coming next.
So many twists and turns, you think you know how it’s going to end, but then something happens and leaves you second guessing.

Love love love!

Made my runs longer

Great denouement, infuriating narrator. Almost gave up at least twice. You need to empathise not scream in frustration.
