Why read it?
2 authors picked What Lies Between Us as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This book is an almost perfect psychological thriller. The way the narration switches back and forth between Nina and Maggie, neither of which is a truly reliable narrator, makes it so that you don't even know who to root for. As the truth unfurls, you get caught up in a wild, emotional ride.
John Marrs is one of my favorite authors, and this book is what got me hooked on his work. This is not your typical thriller, or your typical plot. So buckle up because you are in for a ride. You think you’ve read about dysfunctional families? Wait until you meet Maggie and Nina. Just your run-of-the-mill mom and daughter, hanging out, eating dinner, until mom gets sent back to the attic where she’s chained and being held captive—um what?! Dark, disturbing, with unreliable narrators, it’s everything I love in a domestic thriller and more.
From Marie's list on whiplash inducing twists.
