Perfect Liars tracks the fragile boundaries of trust within a family where appearances are carefully maintained at the expense of honesty.

The atmosphere is consistently dark and unsettling, perfect for readers who enjoy dissecting dysfunctional relationships and watching a well-crafted facade slowly crumble. If you are the type of reader who prefers morally grey characters and enjoys the mental exercise of second-guessing every perspective presented on the page, this book will keep you locked in until the final reveal.
