Every Last Lie: A Thrilling Suspense Novel from the author of Local Woman Missing

New York Times bestselling author of THE GOOD GIRL Mary Kubica is back with another exhilarating thriller as a widow's pursuit of the truth leads her to the darkest corners of the psyche.

Clara Solberg's world shatters when her husband and their four-year-old daughter are in a car crash, killing Nick while Maisie is remarkably unharmed. The crash is ruled an accident...until the coming days, when Maisie starts having night terrors that make Clara question what really happened on that fateful afternoon.

Tormented by grief and her obsession that Nick's death was far more than just an accident, Clara is plunged into a desperate hunt for the truth. Who would have wanted Nick dead? And, more important, why? Clara will stop at nothing to find out--and the truth is only the beginning of this twisted tale of secrets and deceit.

Told in the alternating perspectives of Clara's investigation and Nick's last months leading up to the crash, master of suspense Mary Kubica weaves her most chilling thriller to date--one that explores the dark recesses of a mind plagued by grief and shows that some secrets might be better left buried.

I generally enjoy Mary Kubica novels, so this was an easy choice for me. This time, though, I was most interested in viewing how she handled writing in dual timelines AND multiple voices (and they’re a number of them!) because that’s my style of writing as well. There’s a lot going on in this novel, and I found myself flipping back to previous pages, which is okay. . . nothing wrong with double checking on which character is up to no good during a different time period.

14% and abandoned. While the prologue got my attention and felt intriguing, by the end of the first chapter I just couldn’t. There were both a few too many implausibility’s and contradictions to overlook. Additionally, the writing was too choppy, abrupt. What an early reader would read like.

I did end up figuring out who the kidnapper/killer was but I didn’t expect that plot twist

I was hooked by the second chapter. This was crazy. The pacing was fast and all the POVs were perfect. I thought too many could be a bit busy and confusing but I loved seeing all the different ones before all the craziness went down. Usually I can figure out who did it towards the beginning but this time I wasnt sure did it. Once everything started unraveling I figured out some of the whodunnit. This was such a twisting story within a story and I enjoyed it immensely.
