About the Book
What if you have the perfect life, the perfect wife and the perfect child—and then, in one shattering moment, you discover nothing is as it seems?
It’s the evening drive home from work, a route Joe Lynch has taken a hundred times with his young son. But when he unexpectedly sees his wife’s car ahead of them, he decides to follow her—and ends up witnessing her secret rendezvous with another man. The encounter will tear two families apart and leave an innocent man set up to take the fall for a murder.
Joe finds himself in the sights of a ruthless killer determined to destroy everything he treasures. He will do whatever it takes to protect his family, but as the net tightens around him, his life begins to fall apart. Soon, Joe is in a life or death struggle with a cunning opponent who is always one step ahead.
Lies poses the question: Can we ever really trust those closest to us?
Lies by T.M. Logan is an unputdownable thriller in which each chapter changes the meaning of what came before, keeping the reader guessing until the jaw-dropping finale.

About T.M. Logan
M. Logan was born in Berkshire to an English father and a German mother. He studied at Queen Mary and Cardiff universities before becoming a national newspaper journalist. He currently works in communications and lives in Nottinghamshire with his wife and two children. LIESis his first novel.
Every time I thought I knew where this book was going, it didn’t go there. I really thought this would be a well-plotted mystery that I could easily guess the ending but it just didn’t work out that way. It did start out slow but once I got involved with the characters, it was hard to put down and a quick read. This story will also make you rethink your social media connections.
Joseph is in the car with his young son and sees his wife on the freeway, so he follows her, thinking he can surprise her. He is the one who gets a surprise when they walk in on her at an Inn arguing with her best friend’s husband. Joe gets in the middle of the argument between Melissa and Ben. Mel flees as Joseph knocks Ben to the ground just as his son, William has an asthma attack. In the meantime, Joe has lost his cell phone.
As Joe confronts Mel, he discovers that she is lying about everything (aha! the title!). The relationship between Joe and his son, Will, is something that really makes the story more realistic. I found myself more sympathetic towards him because of that. It definitely got my heart racing as I tried to figure it out. I will look for more books by this author!

I enjoyed Pieces of Her by Karin Slaughter.
Not lately.
Yes! I just finished reading an ARC of a novel to be published tomorrow called The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle. Highly recommended by me! So many unseen twists and plot turns as well as awesome characterization.
The last one was Gone Girl
I really liked “The Death of Mrs. Westaway”.
No i haven’t sadly
I like Nancy Atherton’s cute Aunt Dimity mysteries. Quick and fun.
Secrets In Death by J.D. Robb

My favorite mystery so far this year was Jar of Hearts by Jennifer Hiller
I recently read ‘Mary Rose’ by Geoffrey Girard
The Outsider by Stephen King.
Never Let You Go by Chevy Stevens
I just read Gone Girl, and am now reading Dark Places. They’re both good! This book looks great, its on my list to read.
