Now a movie starring Tuppence Middleton.
One woman's fear is another woman's weapon...
To the outside world, Kathy is the very picture of a happy and fulfilled modern woman. She has a beautiful baby boy, a clever, handsome husband and a glamorous, high-powered job. But not everybody is fooled.
Her colleague, Heja, knows the truth: the cracks in Kathy's marriage, her anxieties about motherhood, and her fear of failure at work. Heja is perfectly placed to destroy Kathy's life. And if she succeeds, she can claim the one thing she wants most...
This chilling psychological thriller about obsession, jealousy, and betrayal was recently made into the movie A Working Mom's Nightmare, now available on Lifetime and Sky TV.
REVIEWS FOR THE LIE OF YOU:
'A very credible portrait of obsession to the point of madness... A clever, involving first novel' Literary Review.
'Fascinating... Clever... The author's real skill is her ability to invent memorable original characters. A thrilling read' Daily Mail.
'Pumps up suspense like Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl... Delivered in a sharp, pragmatic style that is gripping and readable, but behind the adventure the plot hints at bigger, more complex questions about our society' Scotsman.
'A clever psychological thriller... Lythell has a flair for leading the reader into assumptions then pulling away the foundations' Daily Express.
