‘Black Narcissus for the Facebook generation, a clever exploration of how petty jealousies and misunderstandings can unravel even the tightest of friendships. Claustrophobic, tense and thrilling, a thrill-ride of a novel that keeps you guessing.’
Elizabeth Haynes
‘A gripping and disturbing psychological thriller: every bit as good as The Accident.’
Clare Mackintosh
‘Fast-paced, tense and atmospheric, a guaranteed bestseller.’
Mark Edwards
‘Haunting and heart-stoppingly creepy, The Lie is a gripping roller coaster of suspense.’
Sunday Express
‘5/5 stars – Spine-chilling!’
Woman magazine
‘An excellent psychological thriller.’
Heat magazine
‘Packed with twists and turns, this brilliantly tense thriller will get your blood pumping.’
Claire Frost, Fabulous magazine
‘A real page-turner, with two story lines: one of growing menace in the present, and a past narrative of a girls-only holiday that goes horrifically wrong. Creepy, horrifying and twisty. C.L. Taylor is extremely good at writing stories in which you have no idea which characters you can trust, and the result is intriguing and scary and extremely gripping.’
Julie Cohen, 2014 Richard and Judy Summer Book Club Pick
‘The Lie is absolutely brilliant – The Beach, only darker, more thrilling and more tense. It’s the story of a twisted, distorted friendship. It’s a compelling, addictive and wonderfully written tale. Can’t recommend it enough.’
Louise Douglas
‘C.L. Taylor delivers another compelling read that’ll keep you turning pages way too late into the night. Warning: may cause drowsiness the following day.’
Tamar Cohen
‘My heart was racing after I finished C.L. Taylor’s brilliant new book The Lie. Dark, creepy and full of twists. I loved it.’
Rowan Coleman
‘C.L. Taylor is fast becoming the queen of psychological suspense. Read this: you won’t be disappointed.’
Victoria Fox
