The Liars

Compelling and utterly transportive – The Liars is a scorching summer read.

A sun-dappled summer escape with a jagged dark heart. You won't be able to put it down -- B P Walter A fantastic read. Combines elegance, atmosphere and emotional suspense with a twisting, sinister, irresistibly pacy plot that puts The Liars right up there with the best crime thrillers of the moment. I was swept away to Greece and completely immersed in the lives of the three girls, desperate to unravel the secrets of the past. This is heady, seductive, riveting fiction and I enjoyed every page -- Emma Stonex The Liars transported me to the heat of a Greek summer, then and now, but more than that it took me back to the peculiarity of being a fifteen year old girl, on the cusp of adulthood, and the potency and fear of that time. The writing is sublime, the story evocative and compelling. I loved every page! -- Amanda Reynolds The Liars has all the slow burning unease, brilliant characterisation and page turning compulsiveness a reader could hope for - the kind of simmering tension and dark undercurrents that makes it impossible to put down. It's the perfect escapist summer read -- Kate Webb An evocative, twisting, sun-soaked thriller, The Liars explores the tensions and rivalries between step-sisters and reveals how secrets from the past can ripple through the present until dark truths are revealed.

Stylish, intelligent and suspenseful, this novel simmers with slow burn tension and complex emotions, while the beautifully rendered Greek island backdrop offers delicious escapism. You'll want it in your beach bag this summer -- Emylia Hall A powerfully charged tale, pivoting on the savage and tender relationship between girls on their journey into adulthood. The genius of Katherine Fleet is to couple innocence with danger at every turn, creating a truly breathtaking read: sultry, vivid, brimming with tension - and an ending you won’t see coming. I loved it. -- Jane Bailey
