Recenzii
Reads like the best Hitchcock film never made... Konen keeps the earth shifting beneath you as sheexpertly cranks up the suspensewith a cast of characters as quietly slippery as they are intriguing and then, once she's you're on the edge of your seat with tension and unease,the twists keep on coming right up to the final page. I read it in one sitting. Anassured and astonishingdebut from an authordestined to become a big name in thriller fiction
One White Liehooked me from the start. This book has everything-engaging characters, a unique story, andan ending that will blow you away
Remarkably insidious. Puts a sick smile on your face.Extremely readable
It's rare that a novelkeeps me guessing until the very last page-butOne White Liedelivers in a big way.If you crave an escape from the real world, this is the book for you. It's absolutely terrific
Even the biggest thriller fan will struggle to guess the ending of this twisty, gorgeously written debut
One White Lieis compulsively readable. A gripping page-turner. The tension builds with every page.Each shocking twist is followed by an even more shocking twist. This is one of those books you'll want to read again the moment you finish.A masterful psychological thriller that will leave you breathless
I love Konen's writing style - One White Lie is super pacy and whizzes you along - before you know it, the minutes have turned into hours!I couldn't put it down until I knew how it ended
This fast-paced but nuanced thrill ridegrabbed me on the first page and didn't let go. With spare, haunting prose, a tense and richly wrought setting, intricate plotting, andtwists that would make Hitchcock himself gasp,One White Lieis a masterful debut.Thriller fans, meet your new favourite author
Leah Konenhits it out of the park with her debut suspense,One White Lie, in which a faked death goes horribly awry. Konen delivers with Lucy, who escapes to rustic Woodstock for a fresh start, only to discover her new neighbours are harbouring disturbing secrets of their own.A sly, up-all-night thriller that ends with a surprising bang
Believable twists imbue the narrative's urgency as each character's secrets are spilled and as Lucy's past catches up with her. Lucy's credible fears about Davis elicit empathy.Konen should win a new set of fans with thisdomestic thriller.
A swift, compelling thriller with unexpected swoops and swerves.
