A good psychological thriller.
The writing of Never Lie, I found, simplistic. Similar to McFadden’s other books.
But the plot and (somewhat predictable) twists kept me going.
It tells the story of a married couple, Tricia and Ethan, who are stranded in a house in upstate New York because of a snowstorm.
The house belonged to renowned psychiatrist Dr. Adrienne Hale, who went missing three years prior.
When Tricia discovers a room of secret tape recordings in Adrienne’s house and starts listening to them, the truth about Adrienne’s murder is revealed, as are secrets about Tricia’s and Ethan’s own murderous pasts. …
Never Lie is told via two alternating points of view, shifting back and forth between the voices of Patricia Lawton, first introduced only as “Tricia,” and Dr. Adrienne Hale. Tricia’s voice narrates the present, while Adrienne’s voice narrates the past. …
