Product Information

Gripping, clever, and tightly plotted, Everyone Here Is Lying showcases Shari Lapena at her absolute best. I was utterly transfixed. A must-read.”

Shari Lapena is rapidly becoming an international phenomenon. . . Everyone Here Is Lying is the best of her seven works. It begins with a bang and ends with a twist no one will guess. In between, there are clues, lies, intrigue and a lot of well-drawn characters doing nasty things.” Anincredibly clever set-upthat madefor one of the most gripping and surprising thrillers I’ve read in a while. A one-sitting read.” The plot, however, was where Lapena lost me. Typically, all of her past novels have had a perfectly timed ratcheting of suspense that oozed tension and foreboding. Unfortunately, this one just did not deliver in that respect. For that reason, the entire storyline felt decidedly little like a Lapena novel for me. The only piece that was a total home run was the mind-blowing twist that turned the entire book on its head. Once that was out of the way, though, the entire premise just wasn’t all that mysterious. Quite frankly, it fell a little flat in comparison to what everyone thought had happened which left me somewhat dissatisfied. An incredibly clever set-up that made for one of the most gripping and surprising thrillers I've read in a while. A one-sitting read.

Where did that baby go! It’s hard not to read to the end to find out, and the twists waiting there are gratifyingly clever.” A smart, unguessable mystery set among a cast of satisfyingly flawed characters. Shari Lapena is an auto-buy for me - I always know I'll be in for a treat!”

One of the most striking differences between a cat and a lie is that a cat has only nine lives”-Mark Twain Someone We Know is a tour de force of thriller writing. Shari Lapena proves yet again that she is the mistress of the pacy plot, cliff edge tension and menacing suburban claustrophobia. Fans will be delighted and if you haven’t read her books yet, then why on earth not?” Yes, this is another book about a missing child, but what makes this one different from the others is that this time, the child is devious and manipulative-or in other words, she was UNLIKABLE!Avery realized Marion was going to kill her and pushed Marion down the basement stairs instead. When the detectives attended the autopsy, it was implied that Avery might have killed Marion after her fall. The Ending: Slyly plotted . . . Lapena skillfully maximizes suspense with her dual story lines that eventually collide, as well as some deft misdirection . . . many fans of domestic suspense will be satisfied.” Magnificent, a perfect demonstration of [Shari Lapena's] exceptional skill as a storyteller...
