About this item
It all started with just one little lie. But we all know that it never ends there. Because, of course, one lie leads to another... Growing up, Jane and Marnie shared everything. They knew the other's deep-est secrets. They wouldn't have had it any other way. But when Marnie falls in love, things begin to change. Because Jane has a secret: she loathes Marnie's wealthy, priggish husband. So when Marnie asks if she likes him, Jane tells her first lie. After all, even best friends keep some things to themselves. If she had been honest, then perhaps her best friend's husband might still be alive today. . . For, of course, it's not the last lie. In fact, it's only the beginning... Seven Lies is Jane's confession of the truth--her truth. Compelling, so-phisticated, chilling, it's a seductive, hypnotic pageturner about the tangled, toxic friendships between women, the dark underbelly of obsession and what we stand to lose in the name of love.
About the Author
I'm half Polish and half English, and I live in Surrey, England. I started out writing plays for radio, but I've since had a go at most things. I've won prizes for short stories and poetry, and my most recent publication is Ice Feathers, which is set in prehistoric Antarctica and is about a teenage who runs away from home to escape an arranged marriage. I'm best known the Divide Trilogy, published by Scholastic. I've also written books for struggling readers, such as Fury, in which the Erinnyes, the ancient Greek goddesses of vengeance, find a route into our world through a crack in an old pot. I think I'd list travelling to obscure destinations and trying not to get eaten by the local wildlife as my main hobbies.
