Who This Is For
Best for readers who want to be kept on edge: propulsive, twisty, and hard to put down. The prose is accessible: you can read this quickly and it never asks too much of you. It moves quickly: once you're in, it's hard to stop. Readers who prefer character depth over plot drive may find it thin.
Best Read When
Best read when you're in the mood for something tense and impossible to put down, and a read that's fast and propulsive.
What It Explores
One of Us Is Lying explores identity and the gap between who we are and who we pretend to be, survival and what extreme circumstances ask of people, and friendship and what it genuinely asks of us.
