The Good Liar

I received a DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. From the publisher Can you hide a secret with the whole world watching? When an explosion rips apart a Chicago building, the lives of three women are forever altered. A year later, Cecily is in mourning. She was supposed to be in the building that day. Instead, she stood on the street and witnessed it going down, with her husband and best friend inside. Kate, now living thousands of miles away, fled the disaster and is hoping that her past won’t catch up with her. And Franny, a young woman in search of her birth mother, watched the horror unfold on the morning news, knowing that the woman she was so desperate to reconnect with was in the building. Now, despite the marks left by the tragedy, they all seem safe. But as its anniversary dominates the media, the memories of that terrifying morning become dangerous triggers. All these women are guarding important secrets. Just how far will they go to keep them?

What a delightfully twisty book!! (And Canadian, to boot - at least the author is!) The road from 10/10/10 (Triple Ten - it occurred at 10.00 am on October 10th) is a rough one as each woman tries to hide her secrets and realizes that some things cannot and should not remain hidden. deftly written, this book will keep you on the edge of your seat until its very satisfying conclusion. A definite bookclub pick with five solid stars as its rating from me.
