I love the Lew Archer books.

The finest series of detective novels ever written by an American.

The most brilliant mystery novelist of our time

New Daughters of Africa is a beautiful, essential anthology. It is both long-awaited and urgently needed; it recognises the individual voices and interwoven histories of every facet of womanhood

New Daughters of Africa is indispensable because African voices have been silenced or diminished throughout history, and women's voices even more so

The mistress of mystery

Delivered with the sharp wit that we associate with Osman

Intricate plots, humour and the most endearing cast of characters

I inhaled Everyone Here is Lying. Shari is a very gifted storyteller, and a most entertaining one. The pace never flags, the twists are fiendishly clever and the writing is as perfect as can be

Everyone Here is Lying is a Shari Lapena signature read: a taut, clever, chilling ride of manipulation and family secrets, with a terrifying question at its core-what if you can't believe the very people you love the most? Prepare to be consumed!

Gripping, clever, and tightly plotted, Everyone Here is Lying showcases Shari Lapena at her absolute best. I was utterly transfixed. A must-read.

An incredibly clever set-up that made for one of the most gripping and surprising thrillers I've read in a while. A one-sitting read.

Everyone Here Is Lying by Shari Lapena is WILD. A very satisfying thriller.

Magnificent, a perfect demonstration of [Shari Lapena's] exceptional skill as a storyteller... Utterly compelling

Everyone Here Is Lying opens with a corker of a premise that had me racing through the book... a clever twist... a thrilling ride

A fast-paced read with jaw-dropping twists

Shari Lapena is an expert in both pace and the placing of clues and misdirections

Shari Lapena has been described as the queen of the 'just one more chapter' thriller, and having devoured this compelling novel in double-quick time it's easy to see why . . . Plot twists are planted like hand grenades throughout the narrative, set to go off when you least expect them, and the denouement is as surprising as it is shocking.

Lapena has great fun pulling secrets from her conjuror's hat . . . when it comes to construction she's a master, her stream of twists and surprises perfectly timed

I read this in three days and loved every addictive page
