Recenzii

A haunting exploration of memory and obsession, of guilt and betrayal - set against the backdrop of a thoroughly compulsive ticking-clock thriller
Imran is probably the most exciting crime fiction author in the UK right now and All I Said Was True is further proof of that. The dual narrative is exhilarating, the plot complex and layered, the writing is perfect and the narrator's voice is somehow both unreliable and trustworthy. Superb stuff
A twisting path to the moment of murder via a police interview where the truth meets its match. A relentless, absorbing thriller of the darkest paranoid noir
I loved every single page!
Original and ingenious. There's an authenticity to Imran Mahmood's books that is so rare and rewarding. All I Said Was True is the very definition of a compulsive page-turner
A tantalising thriller that bleeds with authenticity. Taut, twisty and fiendishly clever, it will surely confound you until the gripping finale.
Mahmood just keeps getting better and better
Offering powerful insight into Layla's tortured mind, while also revealing parts of the mystery like a set of Russian dolls, each one concealing another, it underlines barrister Mahmood's considerable talents as a crime writer
Wonderfully twisty and kept me guessing all the way to a really satisfying denouement
Imran Mahmood's ALL I SAID WAS TRUE is beautifully complex and arresting. I was swept away in Layla's story, though not quite knowing who I should be trusting and when which - for me - is absolutely key in great storytelling. The way that Imran continues to challenge society, and all our many preconceptions within his books is so powerful
This novel haunted me with its lyrical lies
A suspenseful and intriguing thriller, layered with authenticity and told with real poise
Mahmood perfectly executes the killer combination of beautiful prose and a bloody great story. I will read anything he writes
Exquisite writing, a voice that pulls you in, and a story where you simply have to know what happened. All I Said Was True by Imran Mahmood is addictive
Flawless prose from a skilful mind. Imran Mahmood really knows this world, and he stands head and shoulders above the competition
A beautifully written, gripping page-turner that you won't want to put down
This beautifully constructed, clever plot and it really delivers on suspense. I was guessing and second guessing myself all the way along. This was such a propulsive book for me I read it in one sitting, eschewing everything else so that I could find out what was going on. For me, that's the mark of a real page-turner and this one has it all. It is unpredictable, intriguing, suspenseful and highly enjoyable
Anglo-Asian barrister-cum-novelist Imran Mahmood expertly balances a complex narrative in All I Said Was True ... as his beleaguered protagonist Layla tries to convince the police that a murder she is accused of was committed by a man who does not seem to exist.
With an unreliable narrator - is Layla going mad or is her story, no matter how implausible, true? - and plenty of twists and turns, this novel had me hooked, its brisk pace and revelations making it difficult to put down
