Lies She Told

By: Cate Holahan

Narrated by: Amy McFadden, Lisa Larsen

Sometimes the truth is darker than fiction.

Liza Cole has 30 days to write the thriller that could put her back on the best-seller list. In the meantime, she's struggling to start a family with her husband, who is distracted by the disappearance of his best friend, Nick. With stresses weighing her down in both her professional and her personal lives, Liza escapes into writing her latest heroine, Beth.

Beth is a new mother who suspects her husband is cheating on her while she's home alone caring for their newborn. Angry and betrayed, she sets out to catch him in the act and to make him pay for shattering the illusion of their perfect life. But before she realizes it, she's tossing the body of her husband's mistress into the East River.

Then the lines between fiction and reality begin to blur. Nick's body is dragged from the same river, and Liza's husband is arrested for his murder. Before her deadline is up, Liza will have to face up to the truths about the people around her, including herself. If she doesn't, the end of her heroine's story could be the end of her own.

Highly Entertaining Mind F**k

I loved this book! It was my first one by this author but it won't be my last. Can't wait to dive into the rest of her books!

The dual story lines were incredibly intriguing and had me listening to this book in a single session. Having two distinct female narrators added to the experience and really helped differentiate between the two women and their stories.

You will feel for these female protagonists and find yourself invested in their fates. You'll navigate several twists and turns before arriving at the end. I recommend you fasten your seatbelt and enjoy the ride (re: buy this book; buy it right now!)

Excellent

Truly appreciate the unraveling and unfolding. The actors did not disappoint. Amazing. Listened to in 2 days.

Different than the rest.

The narrators were great! Loved the story. Very different!! I thought I had it figured out more than once only to discover another twist.

didn't hold my attention

it's a decent book that moves along. I just found I had to re listen to many parts because my mind wandered. I don't know if it was the relaxing narrator Voice or a lack of interest in the story. pretty basic...took a bit to figure out the format of narrator and story.

WOW. Couldn't stop listening.

This was so good I finished in a day. I couldn't stop listening. I wanted to know what happened next at the end of every chapter! Back in the day, I'd call that a page turner and I've really only come across a few of those! Probably one of my favorite books ever.
