So when he returns to his house, devastated and angry, to find his difficult nine-year-old daughter, Avery, unexpectedly home from school, William loses his temper.
Hours later, Avery’s family declares her missing.
Suddenly Stanhope doesn’t feel so safe. And William isn’t the only one on his street who’s hiding a lie. As witnesses come forward with information that may or may not be true, Avery's neighbors become increasingly unhinged.
Who took Avery Wooler?
Nothing will prepare you for the truth.

Wasn't too sure at the start. The story was good but nothing special.
Then, as you go along, twists start to happen. Some are quite predictable, but it is still an enjoyable read.
I loved the ending to this book. So satisfying. Quick read and page turner. I didn’t have a favorite character. But I did love to hate the characters. A lot of unnecessary plot lines in my opinion.
Everyone here is lying had a fair rating at best amongst the group. Was an easy read, the book has many main characters and this may have left less to the imagination in light of solving the mystery. The villains age was also questionable for some members but otherwise more than half would recommend to others. This was our first Bookclub book.
Everyone Here Is Lying is a fast-paced, twist-filled thriller that keeps you guessing from start to finish. Shari Lapena masterfully creates a suburban setting where secrets simmer beneath the surface, and every character seems to have something to hide.
