Her Dark Lies: A Novel

"Elegant, propulsive, and utterly unputdownable... The work of one of our most talented thriller writers at the very top of her game." --Lisa Unger, New York Times bestselling author of Confessions on the 7:45

Fast-paced and brilliantly unpredictable, J.T. Ellison's breathtaking novel invites you to a wedding none will forget--and some won't survive.

Jutting from sparkling turquoise waters off the Italian coast, Isle Isola is an idyllic setting for a wedding. In the majestic cliff-top villa owned by the wealthy Compton family, up-and-coming artist Claire Hunter will marry handsome, charming Jack Compton, surrounded by close family, intimate friends...and a host of dark secrets.

From the moment Claire sets foot on the island, something seems amiss. Skeletal remains have just been found. There are other, newer disturbances, too. Menacing texts. A ruined wedding dress. And one troubling shadow hanging over Claire's otherwise blissful relationship--the strange mystery surrounding Jack's first wife.

Then a raging storm descends, the power goes out--and the real terror begins...

Don't miss J.T. Ellison's next thriller, IT'S ONE OF US, coming February 2023!

There was a lot going on in this book. Claire Hunter, an artist, meets ultra rich Jackson Compton. They plan a wedding of the year in Italy. Plenty of twists and turns. Will they make it to the altar? Read and find out.
