Buckle up . . . the best cat and mouse suspense I've read in years -- Lisa Gardner Clever, twisty, and suspenseful, First Lie Wins kept me on my toes right up to the satisfying conclusion -- Diane Chamberlain What a box of tricks! First Lie Wins flickers past like a shadow-play: just when you think you've worked out what you're seeing, the shapes shift, the scene transforms, and - hold on - maybe you had it wrong a moment ago? Cool and clever and full-on fun, the sort of slippery high-stakes now-you-see-me-now-you-don't thriller that few novelists are bold enough to attempt these days. Pick it up, please. This is a good one -- A.J. Finn Smart and sharp, fast-paced and twisty, this kept me on the edge of my seat -- Megan Miranda Wildly inventive, diabolically clever -- Julie Clark The most suspenseful game of deception I've ever read. Brilliant! -- Elle Cosimano
