Listen for the Lie by Amy Tintera
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Exceedingly clever, beguiling and utterly binge-worthy, Listen for the Lie is my favorite thriller of 2024! Our MC, Lucy, is snarky and sarcastic and darkly funny, there’s a dysfunctional family dynamic to love-hate, and an explosive climax that was unforgettable.
Five years ago, Lucy’s best friend was found murdered—and she was the main suspect. But now podcaster Ben Owens is digging into what really happened that night. As Ben unravels the secrets Lucy’s buried too deep to remember, she’s faced with continuing to hide or helping unravel the truth.
This bold, gripping and pacey thriller is fun and completely immersive. I couldn’t put it down.
