Reviews

What a clever and menacing novel The Good Liar is. I was gripped and horrified in equal measure and the ending knocked me sideways! I can't wait for everyone to read the book so I can talk about it An assured thriller debut in the footsteps of le Carrรฉ, Highsmith and Rendell...The Good Liar makes you want to experience Nicholas Searle's next trick This is set to be one of the books of the year that will get everyone talking....If you go in with absolutely no preconceptions, you will have your socks knocked, nay, blown off A part-thriller, part-human condition novel that packs a tremendous punch The Good Liar is a taut, compulsive thriller with a dark, intriguing heart. A Mr Ripley for our time All the ingredients are in this book...You're in safe hands with Searle's elegant writing An incredibly dark, taut thriller...it deserves to be a bestseller. Think of Ruth Rendell morphing into John le Carrรฉ Searle shows a gift for complex plotting. The Good Liar is packed with secrets and surprises, bluffs and double-bluffs A perfectly entertaining way to spend a few hours A confident debut...an easy page-turner A cracking read Expand reviews
