Why read it?

1 author picked What Lies Between Us as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

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.

Dark, disturbing, with unreliable narrators, it’s everything I love in a domestic thriller and more. 

From Marie's list on whiplash inducing twists.
