'To read [The Lying Game] is to have your nerves slowly but inexorably shredded as, over and again, the tension builds and then evaporates until the final, unexpected denouement' Metro 'A gripping, unpredictable narrative that shifts like sand underfoot, and a plot that turns like the tide.' ERIN KELLY bestselling author of HE SAID SHE SAID 'Thank goodness for Ruth Ware...[The Lying Game is] gripping enough to be devoured in a single sitting' Independent Four friends. One promise. But someone isn't telling the truth. The twisting new mystery from bestselling phenomenon Ruth Ware. The text message arrives in the small hours of the night. It's just three words: I need you.

So good. I loved it. A different kind of Gone Girl. The Soccer mom's Pretty Little Liars.
I did not guess the ending, or the middle for that matter. Just enough twists and turns to keep my interest all the way to the end. I liked all the characters. The development of the friendships had a Big Chill feel.
My only criticism is the names of the characters. Some of them were similar, Freya and Fatima, Thea, Isa. The name were a minor irritation at the start of the book.
I loved In the Dark, Dark Wood and The Woman in Cabin Number 10. I plan to read Every Last Lie as well. Ruth Ware is now one of my favorite authors. I highly recommend this book. I can't imagine anyone that wouldn't find this book enjoyable. It has a little something for everyone.
