Lie To Me

Out June 26 with Embla/Bonnier Books

Embla signs 'utterly captivating' debut

Lie to Me, the first book in the deal, is a 'twisty, heady, and intoxicating' suspense thriller set on a Greek island set against the backdrop of the swinging sixties.

The story follows Jean, a lonely young woman caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse with glamourous racing driver Vivienne and her dashing husband Robert, as the couple compete in ever-more dangerous motor races across the country. As the stiflingly hot summer days pass in a haze of ouzo-drenched seduction, Jean must ask herself: how far Vivienne will go to win the ultimate prize? And is Jean willing to pay the ultimate price to help her get there?'
