Three women. Two bodies. One big lie... 'Shocking and scandalous' Cosmopolitan, Best Books of 2022 'Dark and compelling' Liv Constantine 'An edgy, addictive read about the lengths people go to in the name of love' Heather Gudenkauf 'Clever and brilliantly written' Karen Hamilton At an elite private school nestled in the Colorado mountains, a tangled web of lies draws together three vastly different women. Natalie, a young office assistant, dreams of having a life like the school moms she deals with every day. Women like Brooke-a gorgeous heiress, ferociously loving mother and serial cheater-and Asha, an overachieving and overprotective mom who suspects her husband of having an affair. Their fates are bound by their relationships with the handsome, charming assistant athletic director Nicholas, who Natalie loves, Brooke wants and Asha needs. But when two bodies are carried out of the school early one morning, it seems the jealousy between mothers and daughters, rival lovers and the haves and have-nots has shattered the surface of this isolated, affluent town-a town where people will stop at nothing to get what they want. Set in a world of vast ranches, chalet-style apartments and mountain mansions, The Lying Club is a juicy thriller of revenge, murder and a shocking conspiracy-one in which the victims aren't who you might think.

The Lying Club by Annie Ward has two murders occurring at the elite Falcon Academy where reputation is everything. Rich parents send their entitled children to this prestigious school which will set them up to get into an elite college. Lies abound in this story. The Lying Club is told from several points-of-view. It did take me awhile to adjust the changing viewpoints. The key is to try and figure out which are lies and which are truths. Who could have committed such heinous crimes? The beginning of The Lying Club is a little slow as the story (the characters, the setting, and the plot) is laid out. The author provides plenty of detail which allows readers to visualize the characters and the scenes. We get to meet the various characters (rich parents, bratty teenagers, staff tired of dealing with both parents and the students). The pacing picks up in the second half where there is more action and a twist or two. It is a disturbing story that delves into dark areas. The Lying Club starts out with a bang with a murder but then the pace slows down until much later in this long book. I did not like any of the characters in this book which made it hard for me to read. I like to connect with at least with one character. None of them had any redeeming qualities. I really did not care what happened to any of them (my fantasy was the killer could have gone on a rampage and wiped out the entire lot). Many of the characters are cliched. I do wish there had been a warning on the book. It deals with some disturbing issues. If I had known what The Lying Club would have delved into, I would not have picked it up. There is foul language and intimate situations. The Lying Club was too drawn out and, personally, I found it predictable. Annie Ward combines dysfunctional characters with drama, revenge, lies, deceit, secrets, and murder into one twisty tale called The Lying Club.
