Someone is lying. Someone knows the truth. Someone is going to pay…
Wife: I couldn’t be prouder of my charming husband and quiet and kind son. I’ve poured everything into my little family, so I choose to ignore my husband’s late-night phone calls and wandering eye. I won’t let anything ruin my perfect life…
Mother: I tried so hard to have a baby, so when my precious little boy was born, I vowed to do anything to protect him. Now a teenager, he’s making his own decisions, like getting close to my best friend Jill’s daughter. Looking smart in a brand-new navy suit, I watch as he leaves for prom with her. I may be smiling, but inside my head I’m screaming at him to stay away from her…
Liar: Hours later, as flashing police lights slice the darkness around my house, my worst nightmare becomes a reality, and my perfect world comes crashing down. Can I trust anyone at all? My husband hasn’t been truthful, my best friend has been hiding something from me, and my son isn’t as innocent as I thought. But none of their secrets compares to the one I’ve been keeping…
It started with a lie. It will end in murder…

I’m a fan of the author and was looking forward to reading Wife Mother Liar. I had a great time reading this book. This is the kind of twisty thriller I enjoy reading. The chapters alternate from Wendy and Jill’s POV so you are gradually drip-fed their story and how a tragic in both their pasts is linked to present events. I never quite knew where the story would lead with revelation after revelation. I couldn’t stop reading each time I picked the book up. This is a gripping, riveting read. I’d recommend it.
