Riveting domestic thriller with danger and a plot twist around every corner!
Lies to Forever by Marlene M. Bell is a riveting new domestic thriller set in eastern Tennessee and features a young out-of-work interior designer on the run from an unknown killer. With danger and plot twists around every corner, the story is a genuine page-turner!
April Manning is having a bad day. After awakening to an unexpected eviction notice on her door and a no-show bass at her interview to return to work at her former workplace, she decides to take her portfolio to his home, where he’s supposed to be repairing a spa pump, only to find a murder scene. Bad enough, but the day isn’t over yet.
April is a likable and engaging main character, as is her former coworker and beau, Hunter Ellis, who takes up her cause the moment she confides in him. (She had broken up with him over a BIG MISUNDERSTANDING.) As the day goes on, she picks up a stalker who is on top of her every move, and both the homes she takes refuge in feel open, unprotected, and so remote. The cold, snowy Tennessee Smokies add to the strong impression of isolation and lurking danger.
The story is full of mystery regarding who is behind the attacks on April and why they are pursuing her. These questions are further complicated by hints that April’s own mother, a woman who abandoned her to a neighbor 20 years earlier, may have a hand in things. However, the truth proves to be much more diabolical than even that!
I recommend LIES TO FOREVER to fans of domestic thrillers.
