A few little lies never hurt anyone. Right?

Wrong.

Paul has a plan. He has a vision of a better future, and he’s going to make it happen.

If it means hiding or exaggerating a few things here and there, no harm done.

But when he charms his way on to a family holiday…
And finds himself trapped among tensions and emotions he doesn’t understand…
By the time he starts to realise that however painful the truth is, it’s the lies that cause the real damage…

Well, by then, it might just be too late.

***Sabine Durrant’s brilliant new novel, Sun Damage, is available now***

Reviews

Alex Marwood, author of <i>The Darkest Secret</i>
The word-perfect portrait of character leading to disaster, the unfurling dread, the ingenious plotting... I feel sick with envy that I didn't write it myself.
Sarah Hilary, author of <i>Someone Else's Skin</i>
Simmering with menace, and with a blisteringly taut and twisted plot. Simply superb.
Erin Kelly, author of <i>He Said/She Said</i>
A perfect thriller: clever, classy and shocking. I read it in one day.
Jenny Blackhurst, author of <i>How I Lost You</i>
I was absolutely hooked...Sabine builds up the sense of unease with unbelievable finesse. This book simply sings
Lucy Clarke, author of <i>Last Seen</i>
Tightly plotted and taut with psychological suspense, I couldn't put down this gripping novel. In my mind, Lie With Me is set to be one of this summer's biggest hits.
Tamar Cohen, author of <i>When She Was Bad</i>
Tense, darkly funny and morally complex. I wished Lie With Me wouldn't end.
Tony Parsons, author of <i>The Murder Bag</i>
Grabs you from the first page and never lets you go. If, like me, you have been longing for a psycho-thriller of genius since you finished Gone Girl, then the wait is finally over.
Claire Kendal, author of <i>The Book of You</i>
An exceptional novel that seduced me from the first page and tightened its grip with every chapter. I'm not sure it has released me even now.
Claire Douglas, author of <i>The Sisters</i>
I absolutely loved it: claustrophobic, gripping, and beautifully written with a growing sense of foreboding until the unexpected, final twist.
Red Magazine
A clever, engaging thriller to frantically binge-read as the tension mounts and all the subtle clues that Durrant has skilfully hidden begin to reveal themselves
Paula Daly, author of <i>The Mistake I Made</i>
Devilishly dark and addictive
Clare Mackintosh, author of <i>I Let You Go</i>
Brilliantly executed - I loved every page.
T.R. Richmond, author of <i>What She Left</i>
Amid all the lies, one inalienable truth - Durrant has written a clever and totally gripping thriller.
Julia Crouch, author of <i>Cuckoo</i>
It is so skilfully done - Domestic Noir at its very finest.
Mark Lawson
A tremendously engrossing, unnerving story...delivers suspense from the outset and dark jokes and surprises throughout
Laura Barnett, author of <i>The Versions of Us</i>
I was intrigued, unsettled and utterly engrossed from the very first page...so beautifully written and intelligently constructed
Angela Clarke, author of <i>Follow Me</i>
A compelling, clever, claustrophobic read with a brilliantly executed anti-hero - I loved Lie With Me!
The Sunday Times
Ingenious plotting, fine characterisation and assured pacing
Grazia
If you've had a hole in your literary life since finishing Gone Girl and The Girl on the Train, this is the book to fill it
Daily Mail
A sizzling tale of deceit, betrayal and entrapment that is extraordinarily well-crafted and utterly gripping - a stunning summer read
Daily Express
I doubt there will be a better beach read out this summer
Sunday Mirror
An unsettling, disturbing but utterly brilliant, gripping read with a terrific twist
Stylist
Compelling and thrilling
Woman & Home
An undercurrent of tension and sense of growing unease made me keep on turning the pages in this psychological thriller with a difference...and a killer twist
Red Magazine
A clever, duplicitous thriller that racks up the tension
Good Housekeeping
Fast becoming one of our favourites, Sabine Durrant writes clever, compelling thrillers
Heat
There are shades of The Talented Mr Ripley in this atmospheric new psychological thriller... It's not easy to come up with something that truly takes the reader by surprise, but this twisted tale keeps you guessing right to the dark, rather wonderful end
India Knight
A brilliantly executed psycho-thriller - you'll stay up all night
Guardian
Enormous fun, a psychological thriller worthy of Ruth Rendell or Patricia Highsmith.... The way the narration keeps us guessing is masterly
Irish Independent
A chilling, elegantly written, top-drawer psychological thriller
Daisy Goodwin, Daily Mail
Gripping...shows how a life of selfishness and deceit can condemn a person in later life.
The Times
Clever... twists all along the way
Sebastian Faulks
A dark and well-plotted psychological thriller.
