Review: Those Who Lie

Those Who Lie by Diane Jeffrey
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Emily Klein doesn’t know she has killed her husband until the day of his funeral. At first, signs point to a tragic accident. Yet, as Emily pieces together the events before his death – events which led to her own memory loss – she begins to suspect that her husband’s death may have been the result of more than a terrible twist of fate…

But the accident is only the beginning. Because while Emily’s physical scars will heal, the trauma of the accident has awakened old ghosts. She hears strange sounds, catches things that can’t possibly be there in the corner of her eye. Before long, everywhere she looks, she seems to see her husband.

And suddenly, Emily finds herself asking the most dangerous question of all.

Can she really trust herself?

I enjoyed reading this book. It has a good plot although the outcome can be seen coming a little too early in the book. I found the writing a little stilted, particularly towards the end but a good debut.
