NEW YORK TIMES AND INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER
"Boldly plotted, tightly knotted--a provocative true-or-false thriller that deepens and darkens to its ink-black finale. Marvelous." --AJ Finn, author of The Woman in the Window
My name is Amber Reynolds. There are three things you should know about me:
1. I'm in a coma.
2. My husband doesn't love me anymore.
3. Sometimes I lie.
Amber wakes up in a hospital. She can't move. She can't speak. She can't open her eyes. She can hear everyone around her, but they have no idea. Amber doesn't remember what happened, but she has a suspicion her husband had something to do with it. Alternating between her paralyzed present, the week before her accident, and a series of childhood diaries from twenty years ago, this brilliant psychological thriller asks: Is something really a lie if you believe it's the truth?

Entertainment Weekly: 10 Best New Thrillers "If you're looking for
a Gone Girl-esque fix, then this is the book for you."
--Cosmopolitan "A spine-tingling psychological thriller...the joy
(and the stress) of this thriller is separating fact from fiction.
The creepy feeling at the back of your neck is 100 percent real."
--People "[An] insanely twisty thriller." --Entertainment Weekly
"The twists pile up...visceral and haunting." --Oprah.com "Alice
Feeney's twisty psychological thriller, Sometimes I Lie, her debut
novel, slides neatly into the company of Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl
and Paula Hawkins's The Girl on the Train. With its various plot
twists, it's a dizzying, disturbing read that becomes hard to put
down once Amber tells us, 'I'm back now and I remember
everything.'" --The Minneapolis Star Tribune "This brilliant
psychological thriller kept me guessing until the very last page."
--Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl
Alive and The Favorite Sister "A gripping debut with a brilliant
twist, I LOVED it!" --BA Paris, New York Times bestselling author
of Behind Closed Doors "Faster and more twisted than a roller
coaster with an ending that'll make your stomach drop, Alice
Feeney's Sometimes I Lie is not to be missed. I loved it!" --Mary
Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of The Good Girl and
Every Last Lie "Propulsive and absorbing. Such a compelling,
provocative narrator!" --Flynn Berry, author of Under the Harrow
"Fans of the psychological thriller will enjoy this ambitious
debut." --Kirkus Reviews "The ending is jaw-dropping." --AARP's The
Girlfriend "A serpentine tale of betrayal, madness, and murder....
Feeney is definitely a writer to watch." --Publishers Weekly "I
read this in one compulsive gulp in one day. It's SO fiendishly
clever--an absolute masterclass in plotting and narrative design."
--Richard Skinner, author of The Mirror "A bold and original
voice--I loved this book." --Clare Mackintosh, New York Times
bestselling author of I Let You Go and I See You "Tightly plotted,
superbly written, this is a thriller that grabs you and holds you
in its thrall. This story of a woman in a coma recalling the
violence in her life gave me just enough information to remain
entirely gripped yet sufficiently little that I didn't know where
I'd find the answers, or even the questions at times. I was
led--completely willingly--in various different directions and
until the final few pages I was baffled yet engrossed. And then,
suddenly, at the very end, everything became clear. A brilliantly
assured debut and a real achievement." --Nicholas Searle, author of
international bestseller The Good Liar "Exceptional in
plotting...Expect perfectly embedded twists and sharply drawn
characters. A brilliant thriller." --Ali Land, author of Good Me
Bad Me
