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

Product Information

Simon Manus (Cradle of the Gods) Simon Manus is curious about what happened to Sophia. Image: Neowiz Games via Polygon How is the new life of Eloïse Redmond, a muggle born that has to live under the torture and violence towards her just because of the blood that run through her veins. What Fazio and colleagues actually found, is that the biggest influence on whether a statement was judged to be true was... whether it actually was true. The repetition effect couldn’t mask the truth. With or without repetition, people were still more likely to believe the actual facts as opposed to the lies.

Marisa decides to start investigating Clare’s death again now she’s sober and the lead detective is weeks away from retirement and she’s doesn’t want the case to go cold. After the opening lines of Blake’s poem, the most famous are probably ‘A Truth thats told with bad intent / Beats all the Lies you can invent’. Often repeated with reference to politicians or other people who would justify harm and injustice by using facts to support their position, these lines are among Blake’s most resonant.

Tell normally takes an indirect object (one or more people = io) and a direct object (the reported clause = do): If he was the darkness and she was the light.. why was she the one to destroy everyone including the light ? I am actually struggling to think of more points I loved, but nothing else comes to mind. That said, I never once thought of DNFing the book, nor did I find it boring despite being dragged. I suppose that is a minor positive as well.

Thanks to NetGalley & Montlake for an eARC of this book. The following review is my honest reflection on the text provided. Eugenie and Alidoro, Part 2 (Hotel Krat and Relic of Trismegistus) Alidoro will admit that he’s an impostor and a murderer. Image: Neowiz Games via Polygon

I was sympathetic to Marissa from the beginning - a woman fighting internal demons due to her past alcohol addiction and guilt about her sister's death. Did her actions contribute to Clare's death? It wasn't clear. However, despite her own issues, she doesn't give up searching for answers, which was commendable since it seemed no one else was trying. I guessed someone she knew was the murderer, it was only a question as to whether she got the answers without putting herself at risk. The title of this book is appropriate since just about everyone in it is lying either straight out or by omission. Marisa's twin sister Clare was murdered at the age of sixteen and fourteen years later Marisa is still trying to find out who did it. Added to this she is recovering from a serious car crash, some loss of memory and alcoholism.

Sadie and her daughter Robin have returned to her childhood home after the death of her mother. She has enrolled Robin in her old school to comply with her mothers wishes. The deadly logical+pessimist combo in me refuses to accept that nothing came to light for fourteen years and suddenly everything is out in the open within a few weeks. And as usual, it is the amateur family member who discovers stuff that the official investigators didn’t. Due to their childhood traumas the twin developed addictions: Marisa turned to alcohol and drugs. Clare turned to act out badly—dressing like her sister, and having casual sex. Brit is the wild card (she is no angel, a control freak, and everyone thinks she is the mother hen) after their mom died, putting herself in charge. But did/does she have their best interest at heart?A few of the characters were well-sketched. I liked Marisa’s portrayal the best, though it too had minor flaws. I was initially worried that she would be yet another unreliable narrator with an alcohol addiction but her character was handled fairly well by the author. Detective Richards was also quite impactful in his limited role. The moms. Oh, the moms. It started off really intense, which was great. But I just got lost along the way, and it turned from “oh damn, can’t believe she did that!” real fast to “this is so ridiculous it’s just laughable.” Talk about your mean girls, who come across as overwritten for the sake of being exaggerated as a way to keep things moving along. Strike three. If it hurts more than it makes you happy then take the lesson and leave. It’s okay, some people are only rehearsals for the real thing. -Beau Taplin “ This is my first book by this fantastic author & I assure you it will not be my last! She knows how to capture you, hold you down & refuses to let you go all along the way in the lead up. Suspense and thrill are endless in this novel & will keep you up until late into the night. Although some might consider Marissa to be an unreliable narrator due to her past addiction, I supported her throughout and loved how she was the difference maker. Overall, a well plotted mystery.
