'Sultry and evocative, Lie to Me transports you straight back to the glamorous heyday of European rally driving - and with a sizzling slow-burn psychological plot to boot. This debut author is one to watch!' Reader review, 5 stars
The Talented Mr Ripley meets Daisy Jones and the Six in this seductive and evocative debut suspense.
1960.
With her coral-red lips and sleek black bob, Vivienne Fenwick is the most beautiful woman that lonely eighteen-year-old Jean has ever seen.
They've only just met, but Jean knows she'll do anything to be like her.
She soon spies her opportunity. Vivienne and her husband Robert are professional racing drivers - and they need an assistant to spend the summer with them in Greece, to navigate the winding, deadly, pine-scented roads that sweep alongside the sparkling azure sea.
But the closer Jean gets to Vivienne and Robert, the more she becomes dangerously entangled in their turbulent relationship - and their dark secrets.
And as the summer passes in a haze of ouzo-drenched seduction, and danger creeps ever closer, Jean starts to wonder: can she trust these reckless, beautiful people? And what would she do to keep this life?
