Description

The perfect family... or the perfect lie?
 
To the outside world, Gemma Bradley has it all – a doting husband, high-flying career and two delightful kids – but inside the four walls of her tastefully renovated home, she is a mother at her wits’ end who has given too many last warnings and counted to ten too many times.
 
When a child’s scream pierces the night, Gemma’s neighbour does what anyone would do: she calls the police. She wants to make sure that Rosie, the little girl next door, is safe.
 
Gemma knows she hasn’t done anything wrong, but the more she fights to defend the family she loves, the more her flawless life begins to crumble around her. Is the carefully guarded secret she’s been keeping suddenly in danger of breaking free?
 
When Rosie disappears, Gemma thinks she only has herself to blame. That is, until she discovers that Rosie has been keeping dark secrets of her own in a pink plastic diary.  
 
Distraught and terrified, Gemma doesn’t know where to turn. The only thing she knows is that her daughter’s life is in danger…
 
Little Liar is a heart-in-your-mouth psychological thriller about the people we choose to trust and the secrets we keep behind closed doors. If you loved The Girl on the TrainGone Girl or anything by B.A. Paris you’ll be totally and utterly gripped.

    At first this book sounded pretty good to read but later on I lost interest and thought I should quit reading it and then again I paid for it so I kept on reading then the last four or maybe five chapters it all came together but then it did not have the ending which I would have liked if the author had given a hint of reading the next book for a proper ending.

    I read this book in an afternoon. It was a real page turner and very well written. I felt connected to the characters!
