Never Lie is a captivating psychological thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat. The story centers on Dr. Lila, a woman who is trying to rebuild her life after a devastating personal tragedy. She gets involved in a chilling case when she’s asked to evaluate a woman named Amber, who claims to have witnessed a crime. As Lila digs deeper into Amber’s past, she uncovers startling secrets and begins to question everything she thought she knew.
Freida McFadden does an excellent job of creating a tense, fast-paced narrative. The plot is full of unexpected twists, and just when you think you have it all figured out, McFadden throws in another shocking revelation. The pacing is spot-on, with plenty of suspense to keep you turning pages quickly.
What stood out most to me was how McFadden built the tension between the characters. Lila is an intriguing, multi-layered protagonist who constantly wrestles with her own doubts and fears. The story unravels through her perspective, which adds a sense of urgency and makes the twists feel even more impactful.
Overall, Never Lie is a brilliant, twist-filled thriller. It’s the kind of book that keeps you guessing until the very end, with a gripping storyline and characters that pull you in.
