My verdict
Tell Me A Lie is yet another top notch thriller from CJ Carver. This book has it all - brilliant characters, family secrets, an international conspiracy, a police investigation and a twisty turny plot that keeps you guessing all the way through.

This book 'welcomes' readers back to characters from the previous Dan Forrester book, but could easily be read as a standalone. Some of the plot may seem a little far fetched, but it's great fun and a gripping rollercoaster read.

Tell Me A Lie features a highly original modern plot but has a classic spy thriller feel to it too, with more than a hint of James Bond. It kept me on the edge of my seat with its high octane action and ongoing tension. I highly recommend this series!
