Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, Amy Tintera, and Laura Dave, this is a voice-driven, read-in-one-night suspense thriller narrated by a compulsive liar whose little white lies allow her to enter the life and comfort of a wealthy married couple who are harboring much darker secrets themselves. Sloane Caraway is a liar. Harmless lies, mostly, to make her self-proclaimed sad, little life a bit more interesting. So when Sloane sees a young girl in tears at a park one afternoon, she can’t help herself—she tells the girl’s (very attractive) dad she’s a nurse and helps him pull a bee stinger from his daughter’s foot. With this lie and chance encounter, Sloane becomes the nanny for the wealthy and privileged Jay and Violet Lockhart. The perfect New York couple, with a brownstone, a daughter in private school, and summers on Block Island. But maybe Sloane isn’t the only one lying, and all that’s picture-perfect harbors a much more dangerous truth. Be careful what you lie for.
