This sounds fabulous. I loved I Hunt Killers and Gone Girl (the movie version at least). I'm excited to try this.

For fans of Gone Girl, I Hunt Killers, and TV's How to Get Away with Murder.

Max Cantrell has never been a big fan of the truth, so when the opportunity arises to sell forged permission slips and cover stories to his classmates, it sounds like a good way to make a little money and liven up a boring senior year. With the help of his friends Preston and Parvati, Max starts Liars, Inc. Suddenly everybody needs something and the cash starts pouring in. Who knew lying could be so lucrative?

When Preston wants his own cover story to go visit a girl he met online, Max doesn’t think twice about hooking him up. Until Preston never comes home. Then the evidence starts to pile up—terrifying clues that lead the cops to Preston’s body. Terrifying clues that point to Max as the murderer.

Can Max find the real killer before he goes to prison for a crime he didn’t commit? In a story that Kirkus Reviews called "Captivating to the very end," Paula Stokes starts with one single white lie and weaves a twisted tale that will have readers guessing until the explosive final chapters.

  2. Hmmm... I'm not sure this is the book for me. I don't love contemporary fiction! I hope you really enjoy it though since it sounds like you loved the books it's being compared to!

  3. There are always consequences and that's a hard lesson to learn. This sounds really interesting. Oh, I suppose my TBR can stand one more. Thanks for pointing this one out.
